Handmade Home Textiles From Our Far-Flung Travels
"We represent the work of artisans from around the world who weave, quilt, embroider, stitch, knot, hook, bead, print and dye handmade home goods and accessories. We love the pieces that you can actually use every day that remind you of the talent, patience and skill of women everywhere."
-- Cultural Cloth Founders, Mary Anne Wise & Jody Slocum
ACCENT RUGS
We are thrilled to have found a stash of Accent Rugs --- Rugs big enough to pack a punch of color, texture and culture but small enough to land in a short hallway, in front of a door or in a guest room. All are one of a kind!
