History
Landry & Arcari Rugs and Carpeting was founded in 1938. Founder Gerard Arcari is a noted expert on Oriental rugs; his interest began over forty years ago when he apprenticed under an Oriental rug expert from Beirut. After years of learning the history, art and care of oriental carpets, Jerry led sales and buying for the rug department of Jordan Marsh in Peabody, Massachusetts. In 1981, Jerry Arcari and his wife Connie bought the established Landry Brothers Upholstery Furniture, which had been established in 1938. They changed the business from one that sold oriental rugs as an adjunct to furniture to one that concentrated on oriental rugs and interior design. Landry & Arcari Interiors soon became the Massachusetts's North Shore's most outstanding resource for oriental rugs and interior design. In 1993, when Connie retired, the store became devoted solely to oriental rugs and broadloom carpeting. In 2002, Landry & Arcari expanded by opening a showroom in Boston's Back Bay. In 2015, Landry & Arcari opened their Framingham showroom on Rt.9 East. Jerry has passed on his knowledge and enthusiasm for oriental rugs to his children, Jay Julie, and Jeffrey. Julie is the CEO. Jeffrey, as Oriental Rugs Manager, is buyer of hand-woven rugs and has developed our overseas rug productions.
