Richard Pointon Rugs

One of the least known treasure troves in Wellington is Richard Pointon rugs in Petone. He is our 'go-to' supplier for the highest quality rugs that Richard himself hand sources from around the globe. We are like kids in a candy store whenever we visit his showroom, and earlier this week was no exception. Here are Eleanor and Katie carefully filtering through the hundreds of options to find the perfect rug for a client's entryway.

Richard can tell you the story behind each and every rug available; from the country of origin, history of the design, age, and often about the weavers themselves. Fascinating stuff, it beats a cheap and nasty 'rug liquidation sale' any day!

Richard Pointon - The World of Rugs

Last week we took a trip out to the amazing rug supplier Richard Pointon in Petone. Visiting his showroom can be quite overwhelming and baffling, but we were on the hunt for some very specific rugs for a client job, so with Richard and Ron's wealth of knowledge we have narrowed down a few options to try. Exciting!
