Handmade Rugs by
the Dixon Carpet Company
Graham’s interest in different manufacturing processes included a host of rugs made by the Dixon Carpet Company (formerly V’Soske Joyce) with designs by Knuttel. The colours were fabulously vivid - fiery scarlets, canary yellows and electric blues vied for your attention. It felt almost like a crime to stand on them, though the sumptuous pile made you think you are walking on air. Most were destined to be hung on proud owners’ walls though Knuttel didn’t mind if they were used as carpets. Knuttel would usually add the caveat that none of them “would last 10 minutes as a carpet in my house”.
