Woven on unique looms in the USA, velvet carpets have the ability to have single level cut pile and cut and loop variations. The way the yarn is held on velvet looms results in the designs to be simpler, on a smaller scale with linear patterns. Capable of great stripe patterns and checks, velvet carpets are some of the most durable in the market, making them great for higher traffic areas in both the residential and hospitality interiors.
