  • The Story of Axminster Carpets
    Magic Carpets – the Axminster story Magic Carpets-the Axminster story Introduction Up until the 18th century Age of Elegance, few people in this country would have set foot on a carpet. The fl oors of the homes of this Isle would have been made of beaten earth covered in rushes or straw threshings, fl agstones or wood. As late as 1751, a carpet was described as “a sort of covering to be spread on a table, trunk, an estrade (dais), or even a passage or fl oor”. In Scotland, in the latter part of the 18th century, a fl at reversible double-woollen fl oor cloth was becoming popular as a means of rendering the houses comfortable and as “a security against stone buildings, stone staircases and a cold climate”. “Kidderminster stuffs”, initially used as table cloths, were adapted in 1735 as a coarse double-weave cloth for fl ooring, but it was not until the middle of the 18th century that the glorious hand-knotted seamless carpets were born in the market town of Axminster and spread on the fl oors of palaces and country homes of Great Britain and beyond. The inventor of Axminster Carpets was a local man – Thomas Whitty – and it is his story and that of the second great weaver of Axminster, Harry Dutfi eld, which this booklet seeks to record.
