Cairo Rug
Constructed from intersecting patterns on an asymmetric grid, the Cairo rug brings together signature motifs in a rich, earthy palette. The motifs on each size have been meticulously placed and the layout designed to fit as a single repeat to the different dimensions.
Our hand knotted rugs are made using traditional techniques on an upright loom. This creates a premium quality long-lasting rug. Hand knotted rugs are of the finest quality and tend to be weighty and flexible. The dense pile of the wool adds both depth and texture to the colours.
A returnable rug sample (approx. 30cm x 20cm) is available for this design. We offer returnable (and refundable) samples of our rugs for both our trade and retail customers. These samples are presented in a 1:1 scale, offering a section of the design's intricate details.
To view the Cairo rug, along with our full collection, visit our Whitstable Showroom.
Visitors are welcome Monday - Friday, 10am - 4pm.

Hand Knotted – Our hand knotted rugs, in 100% wool, or wool and silk together for lustre, are constructed on a warp using a traditional asymmetrical knotting technique; this creates a premium quality long-lasting rug, with intricate design detail. The motifs can be hand-carved to create a 3-dimensional profile. Hand knotted rugs are of the finest quality and tend to be weighty and floppy in structure.

Underlay + Rug Care
An underlay provides cushioning that increases the longevity of a rug; we advise customers to use a good quality anti-slip underlay, for this reason, and to prevent a rug from creasing and slipping, whether on a carpet or a hard floor. Underlay also protects the floor covering beneath from transference of colours or fibres from the back of the rug.
