Wool-braided rugs are an American tradition dating back to the colonial period. These rugs are reversible, uncommonly durable and manufactured using all natural components. Today, companies both domestically and abroad carry on the traditions of time-honored craftsmanship selling wool-braided rugs through online outlets, specialty shops and in department stores. - The Cape Cod Braided Rug Company was created in the early 1970s and is still a family-owned business. The manufacturing techniques the company uses to create its signature wool braided rugs has changed very little from the methods used by company patriarch Romeo Paulus. The Cape Code Braided Rug Company sells its braided rug creations online and through a factory outlet in Harwich. Tours of the facility are also available on request.
