--
vintage Sharian ad.Sharian Rugs, one of the oldest businesses in Decatur, is celebrating its eighth decade of operation.
The business started in 1931 in a house on Drexel Avenue. In the mid-1940s, the Sharian family constructed an Art Deco buidling at 368 West Ponce de Leon Ave. where the company continues to sell, clean and repair oriental rugs.
Jim Garner, 30, is the general manager and the fourth generation of the family to work at Sharian. He said the recession has hurt the business, as has the abundance of cheap rugs available on the market.
Still, he's hopeful Sharian will last a long time -- like the rugs they sell.
