Handmade Historic Rugs in New York, NY
Woodard Weave was founded in 1981 with a mission to preserve the artistry of 19th-century American flat-woven rugs. Our collection draws inspiration from historic Shaker, Amish, and Pennsylvania weavers, meticulously reconstructing traditional patterns and dyeing techniques. We use organic cotton yarn and environmentally friendly materials to create authentic, hand-dyed floor coverings that reflect the imperfections of hand-loomed craftsmanship. In May 2025, the company was acquired by David Netto, a renowned interior designer and longtime advocate of our brand, ensuring continued availability of our designs while maintaining our commitment to quality and heritage.Our rugs seamlessly integrate into both antique and contemporary decors, offering timeless versatility.
