~ Bespoke Rugs ~
If you would like your own rug made to measure we offer a bespoke service, but please understand that as all our rugs are hand made they take several months to make.
We got our 1m x 1.5m rug made with the shop logo and colours, it took 4-5 months to complete and to get to the UK so if you need anything bigger it will naturally take longer.
As a guide a large 3m x 2m normally takes four people approximately 12 months to make working on it every day.
Please get in touch to discuss your request
