Handmade Woven Rugs Inspired by 19th-Century Designs
Woodard Weave has been crafting hand-dyed, organic cotton rugs inspired by 19th-century Shaker, Amish, and Pennsylvania weavers since 1981. Our commitment to preserving historic weaving techniques and patterns began with a partnership in India that has endured for over three decades. In 2025, the company was acquired by interior designer David Netto, ensuring the continuation of our authentic, hand-loomed rug collection while maintaining the integrity of our traditional methods. Our rugs seamlessly integrate with both antique and contemporary decor, reflecting a dedication to quality and historical accuracy. We offer a range of standard and custom sizes, including stair runners and area rugs, with finishing options like hand-knotted fringe or cotton binding.Professional installation is recommended, and we provide rug pads and protective treatments to enhance durability. Our team is available Monday through Friday to assist with orders, samples, and inquiries, ensuring a seamless experience for both residential and trade clients. Sustainability remains central to our process, with eco-friendly dyes and materials used throughout production. With a legacy rooted in architectural history and decorative arts, we continue to uphold our reputation as a trusted resource for discerning designers and homeowners alike. Our inclusion in the AD100 and Elle Decors A-List underscores our standing in the design industry.

Report
Through the years our firm, Haver & Skolnick Architects, has ordered over 20 of Woodard & Greenstein's beautiful hooked and woven rugs and have always been pleased. We find their rich colors and varied designs complement both traditional and modern interiors. They also make the process so simple & pleasurable, from supplying samples to preparing quotes and working out the installation details. We look forward to having many more opportunities to include their rugs in our clients' homes.
