About Couristan
For over 75 years Couristan, Inc. has been a powerful name in the area rug and broadloom industry. Owned by the Couri family for two generations and operated today by brothers George G. Couri, Chairman and Ron J. Couri, CEO and President, the company prides itself on having the most exquisite handmade and power-loomed floor coverings available from anywhere around the world.
Founded in 1926 by brothers Basil J. Couri and George J. Couri, and appropriately named "Couri Brothers," the company began its humble beginnings by importing fine handmade area rugs from Persia. According to Ron Couri, Couristan's CEO and President, importing area rugs from Persia was a difficult task. "I remember listening to my father and uncle's travel stories. First they took a ship to England, then another to the continent. Once in Europe they took the Orient Express and then drove through the desert to Persia. They finally arrived 32 days later. It was quite an adventure."
The first area rugs imported by the company were a few shipments of Sparta Rugs from Smyrna. At the time, the company began affixing "Couristan" trademark labels to the back of each and every rug it imported. This mark was composed from the family's surname "Couri" and the frequently used suffix "stan", referring to the region of small weaving villages in which the company imported its rugs from. The company would quickly begin to broaden its horizons, as well as its area rug offerings by importing rugs from India in 1927.
In the 1930's, Couristan began importing handmade hooked rugs from China and braided rugs from Japan. At the time nearly 99 percent of the total production of Japan's floor coverings were being exported to the United States. According to Ron Couri, Couristan was regarded as one of the country's largest importers of Japanese braided rugs from the 1930's to the 1960's. During that time there wasn't much of a market for Oriental-design products in the United States, but through Couristan's ingenuity and extensive design development, the company was able to create a substantial marketplace for handmade Oriental area rugs.

The popular design was chosen by a panel of judges for its affordability, strong palette, unique texture and its ability to be utilized in both a casual and elegant room-setting.

I bought the cocoa/black runners for our 3-season porch. The design on the rugs is simply beautiful...the best part is that I didn't spend a fortune! I am very happy with my runners, they transformed a dull area into an elegantly staged space!

Comments about Couristan Recife Veranda Cocoa and Black Indoor/Outdoor Rug:
We put this carpet under our dining room table on hardwood floors. It lays flat, doesn't slip (with a thick rug pad under it), and it's beautiful. I'm pleased with the way it's wearing (looks like new after 2 months). It's easy to vacuum, and chairs move easily -- no snagging. Great, affordable option for dining area.

This has been a great rug. We have eaten dinner many times outside with three children and it still looks new! We love it. It drys quickly and looks great. It came quickly and was far better than anything we could find locally.

Comments about Couristan Recife Veranda Cocoa and Black Indoor/Outdoor Rug:
This rug is as beautiful and stylish as pictured. It is also very soft to walk on which I love after owning a cheap outdoor rug which eroded away in places after only one season. It really is very nice. I will be buying another for the front porch!

Having recently power-washed and stained my deck, we wanted a classic outdoor rug that would protect our deck with our recent purchase of a patio set. This rug does the trick, with style to boot. We're extremely satisfied with our purchase.
