F.A.Q.

What Can a Rug Tapestry Be Used For?

A rug tapestry can be used as:

  • A wall décor - One can be made out of any image in any size to fit into a specific location at a home, a corporate office or a government lobby.
  • A special gift - A one-of-a-kind, custom-made present demonstrates rare thoughtfulness.
  • A family heirloom - A treasured emblem or image can be passed on for generations to honor memories and to pay respect.
  • An extension of a valuable artwork – Famous American artists LeRoy Neiman, Chuck Close and Any Warhol have already enjoyed the benefit of converting their favorite artwork into the silk rug tapestry format to greatly enhance the beauty and value of the artwork.
  • An art collection - Each piece is unique. No exact same piece can be found elsewhere. Therefore the value of the piece will appreciate forever.

How can I determine what line count is good for my image?

Higher line counts will produce finer images and finer piles, which is necessary for images like portraits, photographs, or classical fine art. Lower line counts rugs are thicker and heavier. They are good enough for broad line art like abstract art, pop art or modern art.

Do you have a catalog for me to choose an image from?

Any image that you can imagine is in our catalog. They can be any art prints, photos, family symbols, cultural icons and business logos.... . You can crop a portion of an image, change the color theme, add a boarder or a signature, or anything creative you can think of, and we will then replicate it to a 100% silk, hand-knotted, museum-quality hanging rug tapestry in three to four months. When you get the rug tapestry, you will feel that the time you spend on searching for a perfect image for a rug tapestry is worthwhile. You can also let us know what kind of image you are looking for, we may be able to help you find the one that fits your special needs.

Can I order rug tapestries with different sizes from the portfolio?

Yes. You can order any size, or crop the image to suit your particular location.

Can I add my signature and the year on the rug tapestry?

Sure. This is completely custom made. You can add anything to rug tapestries. You can add a signature or words on the rug tapestry. Please specify the colors you want and the location of the signature or words on the rug tapestry.

What is KPSI?

KPSI stands for knots per square inch.

How can I order?

You can log onto our website: www.artisansrugtapestry.com, click on Order, fill out the order forms, specify the size and line counts you want (e.g. 3’ x 6’, 200lines), submit it online. You have the options of choosing an image from our website portfolio or providing your own image. You can upload an image online. However, due to the color differences from different monitors and printers, it is best that you provide a hard copy or specify the exact colors you would like. To be accurate, use Pantone color codes available at any art supply stores. For example, you can specify that you like to have 505 for the image background and 426 for the boarder.

Orders will be processed upon the transaction of the online payment or the clearance of the check and the receipt of the artwork. Make checks payable to: ART, send checks to ART, P.O.Box 0852, Los Gatos, CA 95030, USA

How long will it take to custom make an artistic hanging rug?

It takes about 3 months to produce a small to medium size rug tapestry (less than 20 ft²), and up to 5 months for a large size (more than 20 ft²). It also depends on the line counts and how complicated the artwork is.

Why should I wait so long to get what I want?

Unlike the massive production of machine made products, our artisans have to make knots one by one. To ensure the consistence of the knots, normally only one artisan will be responsible for a certain rug tapestry. There is no way to speed up the production process or massive produce the product. Consider this as a lifetime investment worth waiting a little longer to receive your personalized, one-of-a-kind wall decoration. Instead of getting something that everybody else can get on the market, it is well worth it to wait for 3-5 months to get the exact art that you are dreaming of and that you will enjoy forever and pass on to future generations with ever appreciating value.

What is your return policy?

100% custom satisfaction is our goal. If you are not happy with the product, just send it back and we will remake it for you or give you a full refund.
