Authenticity of product details
We want you to be completely happy with your purchase when it arrives. For this reason, we kindly ask that you take time to examine the description of the condition of any piece before purchasing.
Please also bear in mind that a screen display does not always show the colour and texture of a piece accurately. This means that the actual item may differ slightly from the image you see on your screen. We are happy to send you more photographs and answer any questions you may have. Dimensions are approximate sizes.
If you are based in the Amsterdam area, it is sometimes possible to show you a carpet in your own home or work place. Do get in touch if you are interested in doing this.
Expect your carpet to shed a bit of wool in the first few weeks. Daily use of the carpet and vacuum cleaning will help the wool to settle. A wool carpet will also naturally flatten over time.
Our vintage collection comprises older pieces with character and history. These products may show signs of wear and restoration or have small marks. We believe that this is part of the carpet’s story and adds to their beauty and charm.
