Materials & Craftsmanship — Where Artistry Meets Innovation

Materials and Craftsmanship (9).avif

Exceptional Materials — Designed to Perform & Inspire

At Clerkenwell Rug Studio, we champion material excellence as the foundation of every rug we offer — from our bespoke handcrafted pieces to our curated quick ship Fast Track collections.

Whether you’re choosing a luxurious hand-woven wool masterpiece or a performance-oriented jacquard rug made with sustainable fibres, every rug is selected for longevity, texture, and aesthetic integrity.

Natural Fibres & Classic Craft

Wool — The Gold Standard for Comfort and Durability

Wool remains one of the most prized rug fibres. Its natural elasticity, resilience to wear, and warmth underfoot make it ideal for both statement pieces and everyday living environments.
Our bespoke rugs often feature premium wool spun for softness and durability, offering performance that endures over years of use.

Fast Track Collections with Modern Engineering

Clerkenwell Rug Studio’s Fast Track collections feature a curated range marrying heritage weaving with contemporary innovation. These collections are crafted on jacquard looms using recycled yarns and PET performance fibres.

This range exemplifies next-level material innovation, using mono-material polyester constructions that are fully recyclable and currently made with up to 40% recycled PET content, with ongoing targets toward 100% recycled materials.

Sustainable PET & Recycled Yarns

  • Enhanced durability & stain resistance 

  • Ease of maintenance with machine-washable options

  • Circular design principles via take-back recycling programmes

Jacquard Weaving — Precision & Depth

Designed on advanced jacquard Wilton looms, these rugs achieve complex patterns and rich texture with precise control over weave density and colour transitions — a technique that elevates both visual impact and structural integrity.

Artisanal Craft — From Tradition to Contemporary Vision

Handmade Bespoke Rugs

Our bespoke range reflects centuries of rug-making heritage, harnessed by skilled artisans who transform premium fibres into distinctive handcrafted rugs tailor-made for your space. These pieces feature:

  • Traditional hand-weaving and tufting

  • Meticulous pile finishing and density calibration

  • Complex colour and pattern layering

  • Craft Quality That Endures

Unlike mass-produced floor coverings, true craft pays attention to tension, weave density, and finish — attributes that contribute to your rug’s longevity, feel, and depth of design.

Sustainable & Ethical Standards

Clerkenwell Rug Studio selects UK and EU partners who prioritise sustainable production and environmental responsibility. From responsibly sourced fibres, materials carrying EPDs to our recyclable Fast Track options, we champion materials and processes that support a healthier interior and planet.
