Bindings & Serging Binding the edge of a rug in polyester or cotton is generally the most basic way to finish an area rug. It keeps the rug from fraying and offers protection from daily wear. Serging is a more formal option than binding, as it appears as continuous stitches sewn around the rug edges. Wide binding is a fabric or leather strip applied with a “blind-stitch” from 1”- 3” in from the rug edge, then wrapped over & under the edge of the rug and adhered.

Specialty Borders & Piping This is a wrapping process of applying a fabric to a separate border material (or substrate) to achieve any border width desired. Virtually any upholstery grade fabric or leather can be utilized in this application. The fabric is applied (latexed) to a 1/4” flat wool carpet, then wrapped over the edges and tightly adhered. The borders are then applied to a broadloom piece of carpet to create an extraordinary area rug or runner. Piping is an optional feature of applying a thin folded strip of the same border fabric as to form a “pipe” between the field carpet and outer wrapped border.

Specialty Borders & Studs The application of studs & upholstery nails is the process of inserting metal studs into an area rug or stair fabric wrapped border to give them a truly unique look - and are made flush with the top of the border not to create a tripping hazard. The method of inserting area rug studs are done with “pronged” studs. Upholstery nails are utilized on stairs which are applied directly through the border and into the wood stair. Studs & upholstery nails are offered in a variety of styles and finishes.

Inlaid & Logos An inlaid area rug is the most labor intensive of all our processes. After the design is finalized, the rug is drawn to full scale, cut apart from all the different color choices, assembled like a puzzle, then heat welded together. Many inlaid rugs are then hand-carved to give it depth wherever two different colors or textures meet. Commercial inlaid mats are essentially created the same way. Unlike cheap “ink-jet” mats that appear worn quickly, these mats provide a long lasting beauty.
