Cairo Rug
Constructed from intersecting patterns on an asymmetric grid, the Cairo rug brings together signature motifs in a rich, earthy palette. Now available in four stocked sizes, the motifs on each size have been meticulously placed and the layout designed to fit as a single repeat to the different dimensions.
Made in 100% wool using a traditional asymmetrical knotting technique on an upright loom. This creates a premium quality long-lasting rug, with intricate design detail. The motifs are hand-carved to create a 3-dimensional profile. The dense pile of the wool adds both depth and texture to the colours.
A returnable rug sample (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.
The Cairo 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.
Materials - 100% Wool. Natural, durable and versatile
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.
