Sample kit
Start with the colour library below — ninety-eight shades, each with a number. Tell us the numbers you're drawn to, or send a paint chip, a fabric swatch or a photograph, and we wind wool wraps for your project and post them to your studio. Free to the trade, anywhere we ship.
Quote the shade numbers from the chart below, or post us a paint chip, a fabric sample, or a photograph of whatever the rug has to sit beside. Anything physical beats a screen.
Not a generic swatch book — the actual colours your rug would be woven in, dyed by hand in small lots and wound onto a card.
Nothing goes on a loom until you've held the yarn. The approved sample becomes the standard we're held to.
Ask for a room visualisation at the same time — send a photograph of the room and we'll place the design into it to scale, so you and your client can judge it in the space rather than on a swatch card. Free, with the sample kit.
The colour library
Specify by number and there is nothing to misread — "colour 47" means the same thing in your studio and at our dye house. Or send a swatch and we'll dye to it, outside the library entirely.
Screen colour is never accurate. This chart is for narrowing down — the physical kit is what you decide from.
Our promise
Every colour here is dyed by hand, in small lots, by people rather than machines. That means a 5–10% variation between the sample and the finished rug — and that variation is the point. It's the difference between a rug that was made and a rug that was manufactured.
But variation isn't the same as wrong. If your rug doesn't match the samples you approved, we weave it again — at our cost, with no return shipping to arrange.
Applies against approved yarn samples, within 14 days of delivery, with photographs. Natural 5–10% dye variation isn't a fault. Doesn't cover a change of mind or a size measured incorrectly.
