Striped rugs and striped carpet to the trade
Striped rugs to the trade: 555 styles from Prestige Mills (93), Couristan (43), Kaleen (40) and Cella Carpet (33). Flatweave (56), hand-loomed (205), Wilton (60) and tufted (28) are the constructions; wool (273), wool blend (123) and polypropylene (32) the fibers and 510 are made to order.
The stripe is the trade's working pattern for a stair. A striped stair runner in a wool flatweave or Wilton, Prestige Mills and Bloomsburg Carpet are the two to sample first, runs the stripe up the flight, hides soil in the darker bands and needs no pattern match at the landing. Couristan does the wide awning stripe in solution-dyed polypropylene for a porch.
A striped runner rug runs the stripe the length; a striped area rug under a seating group usually runs it with the long dimension of the room, which lengthens it, or across to widen it. A fine ticking stripe under an inch reads as a texture and goes with anything; a 4 to 8 inch stripe is the pattern of the room and pairs with a solid and a small print. Custom stripes in the client's colors are a flatweave strike-off away through custom rugs; see stair runners and flatweave.
Before you specify, read the striped rugs guide and the striped stair runner guide, written for the trade with the constructions, fibers and rooms that suit this look.
