There was a time when the carpet industry, and the history of carpets, was taken seriously, and was well documented, with those involved writing books and learned articles on the subject, most notably C.E.C. Tattersall’s and S. Reed’s huge, The History of British Carpets, which first came out in 1934, with an updated edition re-issued in 1966 by F. Lewis & Co.

I bought hundreds of the things and created quite a stir when I got the press and TV involved. I also managed to get the wonderful Afghan writer, Amina Shah, sister of the novelist, Idries Shah, involved in helping to publicize the rugs, which were eventually sold at auction to raise money for Afghan refugees.

The carpet industry is no exception to this pattern but has managed, by mergers and takeovers, to keep on going, just.

The carpet industry is no exception to this pattern but has managed, by mergers and takeovers, to keep on going, just.But perhaps one of the biggest changes the carpet industry has suffered over the years — especially in the UK — is the decimation of its once proud geographic base. Go to Kidderminster today (once the very heart of Britain’s carpet industry) and you’ll soon discover that most of the carpet factories are now long gone, with most of the sites turned into the ubiquitous shopping centre, multi-storey car parks, or housing estate. It’s also rather ironic to observe that one of the many new roads built in Kidderminster’s town centre is called ‘Carpet Trades Way’, which you might consider to be something of a tribute until you discover it’s a dead end.
