BUYING TRIPS

Bob and Tyler Rice travel frequently to India, Pakistan, China, and Turkey to build and strengthen personal relationships with the people who design and make the best rugs in the world. During these trips the Rice's personally hand select only the finest quality hand woven oriental rugs. These relationships make it easy to provide Carillon customers with custom rugs to meet their specific needs.

Every rug is thoroughly washed prior to export.
Rugs are then hung in the sun to dry or laid flat in the sun to dry.
In the finishing process, sections of a rug are sheared to show off the true colors and design.
Each rug is thoroughly inspected down to the finest detail.
