As a young collector of mid-century furniture, art and accessories, Tony Kitz fueled his passion for beautifully designed things through buying and selling, and by age 16 had established his first real business in the antiques world.
Years later in business school, Tony was exposed to the fine carpet industry and knew he had found his calling, in a world of rare antiques and fine beauty. Since opening Tony Kitz Gallery in 1994, Tony has had the opportunity to work with the best designers and collectors in the Bay Area, providing them with the highest quality antique carpets available in the world today.
When Tony is not buying and selling fine antique rugs, he can be found collecting folk art, riding on a vintage scooter or skateboarding around San Francisco.

The Tony Kitz philosophy is deeply rooted in the harmony of condition, age, beauty, rarity and great service. Tony believes that the color, texture and graphic quality of a fine carpet, in harmony with great art collections and beautiful furnishings and accessories, is the foundation of any good interior space. It is this theory that inspires Tony when selecting carpets for his inventory that he knows will help create these “great spaces.”
He has built a solid reputation with Bay Area designers for his diverse, unique, and constantly evolving inventory of modern and antique carpets, textiles, pillows and artwork from around the globe. Tony and his devoted team pride themselves on their high level of customer service, offering complimentary delivery and on-site consultations that make the process of selecting the right rug for any project a stress free experience for both designer and client.
Tony Kitz Gallery also offers cleaning and appraisal services by appointment.
