Needlepunched Felt Area Rugs & Runners

We have been offering the Lamontage area rugs, pillows and ottomans for several years.  These pieces are truly made by hand in the United States.

Lamontage is a patented process that combines artistic creativity with high tech processing. Resembling the ancient art of felting; acrylic fibers are intricately structured by hand and then mechanically interlocked by needle-punching to create custom nonwoven designs. The material is then treated with an EPA approved, nano silver antimicrobial finish. This prevents deterioration and the growth of mold and mildew, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. The end result is distinctive area rugs, furniture and carpeting. Resembling artwork more than traditional textiles, all Lamontage products are available in custom sizes, custom colors and custom designs.

The creative options for his high performance product are virtually limitless. Lamontage product attributes: – Durable – Easy to clean – Indoor/outdoor – Antimicrobial – Will not unravel, fray or snag – Commercial or residential use – Flooring is suitable for high-traffic areas – Available in custom colors, sizes and designs.

We have had a Lamontage rug in front of our kitchen sink for close to 8 years.  It still looks brand new.  We take it outside periodically and hose it off.  Yes, they are expensive compared to other outdoor rugs – but they will last many times longer.  Furthermore, they can be used for commercial use.  These rugs are truly art for the floor.  Please take the time to stop by our showroom and see these fabulous area rugs.  They are unique, stylish and durable.

Karastan Selected For Molly Brown House – Again

Karastan - Molly Brown

Denver – After 28 years and countless footsteps, the Karastan 717 Multicolor Panel Kirman carpet in the historic Molly Brown house here is being switched out.

But don’t expect a new look.

The house, the former home of the late “unsinkable” Titanic survivor and now a museum, has been re-carpeted with the same Karastan rug.

The wealthy philanthropist, reformer and stage actress lived for many years in the mansion, built in 1889 and designed by architect William Lang. After Brown’s death in 1932, the home went through incarnations as rental property, a gentleman’s boarding house and a home for wayward girls.

Finally in 1970, local citizens organized Historic Denver to preserve the Molly Brown House and open it as a museum. The group installed Karastan carpet on the front stairs from the first to the third floor and on the second floor hallway, which includes the sunroom.

Almost three decades later, when it came to replacing the carpet last month the museum decided to go again with Karastan’s Kirman – for two reasons, said curator Kelly Rasmussen.

“With more than one million visitors since the early seventies, this carpet has held up remarkably well,” she explained. “We feel it’s a high quality carpet and that, with all the colors in the carpet, it brings a special appearance to the house. People have come to associate that carpet with the house.”

Karastan’s 717 Multicolor Panel Kirman has more than 50 colors used in an ancient Persian shawl style. It carries the Wools of New Zealand brand.

Connie Berry, director of marketing at Karastan, said the company’s 717 Multicolor Panel Kirman “has been popular since its introduction in 1938. We are honored to be a part of the Molly Brown House and happy that Karastan can continue to be a part of the remarkable Molly Brown story.”
