Carpet Construction

The carpets are woven on our own looms in Somerset, England using a blend of New Zealand and British pure new wool, this is hard wearing and takes colour beautifully. They are woven in approximately 70 -120 cm widths, depending on the design, and can be seamed together to form area rugs of almost any size, or for close covering an area. On the left you will see three images which are examples of various seaming and hemming options. From the top to the bottom:

- Bonnington: showing plain turned under edge
- Addington: seamed by hand to give an almost invisible join.
- Greenwich: seamed to close cover a landing.

Fitting

It is very important that the carpet you choose is properly fitted, which will ensure that it looks good and wears well. Always take the advice of your carpet fitter as to which method is best suited to the location.

Underlay

It is recommended that you always use underlay with our rugs and runners as this reduces wear and keeps them from slipping. There are several types of underlay available, again, please consult your carpet fitter for the most suitable type.
