Dallas County in a New Colorway!

A client asked us if it would be possible to do one of our best selling hooked rug designs, Dallas County, in more primary colors.  Of course we could, and here it is.

Original Dallas County colorway HR#203-A

An exciting part of creating our own hooked rug collection is that it offers us the opportunity to vary the designs and colorways in an infinite number of ways, just like the traditional rug makers a century ago.  All our rugs are inspired by 19th- and early-20th-Century designs which have stood the test of time.  

Each of our rugs is hand-hooked with hand-dyed fabrics that produce an individual variation, each with a human touch. We can make this or any other rug in our exclusive collection in virtually any size or shape. A round version , shown here, is especially appealing.

Our own HOOKED RUG COLLECTION


Geometric designs in hooked rugs have been popular for centuries. Trouble is, the beautiful old ones are fragile and often not suited for everyday use. We have always been big fans of traditional hooked rugs and have come up with a solution - our own collection of historic designs, all based on authentic antique patterns from the past. Virtually any size is possible, and although we discourage soccer teams from working out on them, they do have the strength and integrity of the great old rugs when they were brand new.

The good news is, these geometrics work in so many decors - modern, art deco, traditional, mid-20th-Century, minimalist  - so many options. Each rug is hand-hooked with the highest quality, durable cotton. Made to order, virtually any size is possible, from runners to area rugs.

We are genuinely excited to offer these historic carpets available in a wide variety of sizes and colors. Our digital catalog is available by request by e-mailing info@woodardandgreenstein.com

A Visit to India

Welcome to the new Woodard & Greenstein blog! For our inaugural post we'd like to share about our recent trip to India. We had a wonderful time - yes, Incredible! - visiting the factory where Woodard Weave and Woodard & Greenstein Hooked Rugs are created, as well as attending the traditional wedding of the daughter of our long-time partner in Mumbai.

It was a real pleasure to see the skilled craftsmanship that goes into each and every one of our rugs, all handmade in every aspect, from the dyeing of the yarn to the weaving of our own designs on traditional hand looms.

The Mumbai wedding, with a packed schedule of accompanying celebrations, was full of excitement and, of course, India's signature colors.



The warmth and energy of India's people made our experience unforgettable.
We look forward to our next visit!
