Apollo Rug
The Apollo hand knotted rug takes direct inspiration from the intersecting blocks in Margo’s hand woven artworks - an example of the studio’s ‘Art into Industry’ approach.
The rug is made using a traditional asymmetrical knotting technique formed by wrapping yarn around a rod (saria) on an upright loom. This creates a premium quality long-lasting rug, with a deep and dense pile.
The Apollo rug is available to view in our Whitstable showroom. We welcome visitors 10am - 4pm, Monday to Friday.

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.
