HAND-TUFTED
Our most versatile product; design is truly limitless in this medium. Colors are dyed to match, textures and pile heights can be combined with abandon, as well as an array of luxurious, natural fibers to choose from for your original.
We provide design, working artwork, samples for approval, importation and oversight of delivery.
INDO-TIBETANS
The most coveted medium we offer. Tibetan rugs are woven on looms by master craftspeople and look both sumptuos and refined, possessing just the right amount of hand-hewn “wabi-sabi” to make each new original of heirloom quality.

Hand-Knotted
The finest process that we offer, it allows for an immense amount of detail. Our custom, hand-knotted rugs are perfect for resizing or matching an antique rug to suit a space perfectly.
This process is most conducive to high-end residential, suites, or offices, and when there is no time crunch.
As with all our products, we provide complete design, oversight, sampling, and importation.
Axminster
The anchor product of fine hospitality projects, this is the only product we design and provide that is not handmade. It is, however, the most luxurious machine-made broadloom made in 80% wool or 100% wool- your choice.
The yarns are dyed to match and the patterns and repeat sizes can be as large as your vision for the project.
Dunbar Cullum provides design, strike-offs, specifications, manufacturing oversight, importation, and seaming plans as well as decades of experience working with purchasing companies and hospitality properties.
Axminster is the most eco-friendly broadloom available, therefore, it is our product of choice.
