The Quick-Custom program offers fast access to virtually any custom-size rug up to 50 feet long from three transitional artisanal Lori-Loom weave broadloom-style collections: Bowery, Hudson and Lennox. Designed for homes as well as for a variety of commercial installations such as offices, hotel rooms, common areas and more, each of the collections in the Quick-Custom program features versatile multi-textural weaves hand-loomed in a combination of premium wool and Silkette yarns in popular colorways. All Quick-Custom rugs are serged by hand, not by machine, for the superior attention to detail expected from all fine Kalaty products.
