The Karastan Story


The Karastan name has been synonymous with quality, beauty and durability for more than 80 years. Since the 1920’s, it has been setting the standard amongst rug and carpet makers and continues to maintain its leadership position as America’s brand of choice for high-end carpeting and rugs.

Luxury Karastan Carpet craftsmanship

Craftsmanship

There is still a place for fine craftsmanship in the modern world, and it’s here where Karastan carpets and rugs are made. Despite the use of highly advanced technology, much of the work on Karastan products is 'by the most proven piece of machinery around- the human hand. While machines can do the work, only people can create a work of art, and nothing can replace the human touch looking for a loose stitch or a stray thread.

From designer to weaver to inspector, every hand that touches a Karastan product represents someone who takes great pride in their craft because quality is the Karastan trademark. It is behind every choice of material, every design, every technology, every process and every product that goes out the door.
