Abstract: A rug rack includes a pair of similar frame structures supported in substantially parallel, spaced relation by an intermediate frame structure extending diagonally between and secured to both of said frame structures. The rug rack is free-standing, and does not need to be secured to any other supporting structure. A plurality of rug supporting members are pivotally secured to said intermediate frame structure for holding respective rugs in depending position, each being freely pivotable into a viewing position. The pair of frame structures further includes outboard supports for holding a plurality of rolled rugs in axially upright position. A canopy surrounds the upper portion of the rug rack, and has lights mounted interiorly thereof to illuminate rugs supported by said rug rack.
