A lifetime’s experience with antique carpets has helped transition into making hand made rugs to individual requirements — be it straight replicas, moderated antique designs or entirely new concepts. The work also includes installation with staircases as a specialty. Most are woven in Turkey via our outpost in Istanbul. In Turkey the weaving is done using sustainable materials, notably natural dyes and hand spun wool using non-exploitative labour.
We work for and alongside creative individuals and companies in the decorative arts including Tom Fereday, Rifat Ozbek, Soane, Howe, Retrouvius and Tom Bell.
