By Sonia K & James Kon

Bandar Seri Begawan - It was a visual feast at the Central Asian Carpet Exhibition held at-the Lexus Showroom in Gadong for all Lexus owners yesterday from 1pm to 7pm.

According to Mr Ninan Chacko, NBT Managing Director, the company, in its continuing efforts to drive greater customer satisfaction, has in collaboration with the renowned carpet specialists, Hassan Carpets, Singapore, brought in 56 exquisite hand-woven carpets from India, Pakistan and Iran. Each is a work of art that all Lexus owners will not only be able to appreciate but also purchase to take pride of place in their homes.

"Some of the carpets have up to 750 knots per square inch - truly intricate work of artistic beauty and perfection. These masterpieces will be prized by all Lexus owners, who will also recognise the same relentless passion Lexus subscribes to, in their pursuit of excellence and perfection in automotive engineering and production," he said.

According to Mr Suliman Hamid, Managing Director of Hassans Carpets, it is a fact that carpets made of top quality wool and other materials, will in fact, improve with age. Under `normal household usage', carpets have been known to last for 300 plus years.

"The patina (exquisite colour) of top quality carpet is actually enhanced with age and usage. Our most expensive piece here is a, B$81,000 Pakistan-made carpet," said Mr Suliman whose three generations old company has sold ornamental and investment carpets worth B$1, 000,000+ per piece.

"The public is welcomed to the exhibition at the Lexus Showroom today from 9am to 7pm, to experience these masterpieces of excellence, which are seldom seen in Brunei Darussalam," said Mr Chacko. For further information, visit www.hassansearpets.com. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
