Woollen Fringing and Tassel Finish

Carpet Binders can add a gorgeous woollen fringe or tassel edge to any rug. This adds another dimension to the finishing touches when entering a room.

We also are often called upon to given new life to a much-loved rug that has had a fringe that has seen better days. In the rug recovery process we often rebind the edges at the same time. Therefore the patterned rug can continue to bring pleasure to its owners for another decade or two.

With our woollen fringing service, the choice of the colour of the tassels is endless.
