Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Rhody Rug in Lincoln, RI, where traditional New England heritage meets modern manufacturing. Since 1987, this family-owned facility has been handcrafting premier, durable braided rugs entirely made in the USA. Rhody Rug is celebrated for fiercely preserving traditional New England craftsmanship while resisting the temptations of mass offshore production or inferior materials. Tour attendees will witness the mesmerizing process of multi-carrier yarn braiding, explore the artisan sewing floor featuring custom "air-float" assembly tables, and see how raw materials are transformed into beautiful, timeless home décor.


We can't wait to see you there!
