Unraveling the Threads
Craftsman Rugs, Mission Style Rugs and Arts & Crafts Style Rugs
You've heard these terms—Arts & Crafts, Craftsman, Mission—used interchangeably, and while they share the same philosophical roots in handcraft over mass production, some folks will make a distinction between designs.
Arts & Crafts rugs may feature more intricate designs with nature motifs, perfect if your home leans toward the ornate. Craftsman rugs embrace simple patterns and earthy tones that complement bungalow interiors beautifully. Mission-style rugs go minimal with strong rectilinear forms.
Our collection spans this entire spectrum, so whether your home celebrates elaborate floral patterns or clean geometric simplicity, you'll find rugs that feel authentically period-appropriate rather than merely "inspired by" historic design.
Artistry Sets Our Craftsman Rugs Apart
Unmatched Durability
Your rug needs to survive real life—pets, kids, tracked-in dirt, spilled wine. These rugs start with sheep raised at high altitude in Tibet, where harsh conditions create wool with exceptional lanolin content. That natural lanolin acts as waterproofing and stain resistance built right into the fiber. The wool is hand-processed in Kathmandu without bleaching, preserving that protective quality. You get a rug that naturally resists stains and water rather than relying on chemical treatments that wear off.
Authentic Artisanship
Every rug is hand-knotted in Nepal by skilled artisans who've spent years mastering their craft—the same devotion to handwork that William Morris championed in the Arts & Crafts movement. From shearing sheep to dyeing wool to knotting every individual strand, human hands complete each step. No factory production lines, no shortcuts. You're investing in work that honors the movement's founding principles: honest materials, visible craftsmanship, objects built to last.
Alluring Abrash
Notice the subtle color variations across your rug's surface? That's abrash—not a defect but proof of authenticity. Hand-dyed wool creates gentle color transitions that machine production can't replicate. These natural variations echo the Arts & Crafts movement's celebration of handmade character over factory uniformity. Your rug becomes genuinely unique, with color shifts as individual as the artisan who created it. Mass-produced carpets can't offer you this.
