Derwent Rug
The Derwent rug is a playful translation of the three-dimensional ribbed weaving structure known as "ripsmatta" or rep weaving. This effect has been achieved by using contrasting low and high wool pile to form a textured linear design. With bright and dynamic colours, arranged in shifting positions to create fluidity.
Each rug is individually made in 100% wool, creating a dense, long lasting pile which adds texture to the colours. The rugs are crafted using a very precise technique of inserting and looping yarn tufts with handheld tools. The finishing process of meticulous hand carving each motif produces a crispness of line, with varied pile heights to create a 3-dimensional effect.
The Derwent rug is available to view in our Whitstable showroom. We welcome visitors 10am - 4pm, Monday to Friday.

Craftsmanship: Premium Hand Tufted
Pile Composition: 100% Wool
Hand Tufted – Luxurious pile, tightly packed yarn – these rugs are handmade on upright frames using a very precise technique of inserting and looping yarn tufts through a canvas backing, with handheld tools. Features of this method are the density of pile and crispness of line, with optional varied pile heights hand-carved to create a 3-dimensional effect.
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.
