(Hicksville, NY – April 2026) Kalaty Rug Corporation brings an impressive display of new area rugs in all weaves, textures, constructions, décor genres and colors to the company’s High Point showroom, IHFC, G369. Kalaty’s primary emphasis, as usual, is on their latest high-end hand-knotted collections and additions to best-selling hand-knotted collections. In addition to hand-knotted styles, Kalaty has expanded their upper-tier Luxe-Weave™ hand-finished power-loomed collections, to include the floral inspirations of the Waldorf collection. All Luxe-Weave™ collections – Waldorf, Zara, Nexus, Blooma, Ventura and Paintwrks – are made with premium wools; but what sets these Luxe- Weave™ rugs apart from most standard power-loomed rugs is the proprietary Luxe-Weave™ process during which each rug receives a number of meticulous hand-finishing steps similar to what is given to Kalaty’s high-end rugs. These important hand-finishing steps are key to the luxurious texture and qualities that make Kalaty’s Luxe-Weave™ rugs nearly indiscernible from many of their hand-knotted counterparts.

“Our spring 2026 High Point new-product presentation includes many exciting new collections and designs added to some of our best-selling collections,” says Kamran Kalaty, a company spokesman. “We are showcasing new designs in all constructions including Waldorf, our newest Luxe-Weave™ collection. Waldorf, brings the number of our Luxe-Weave™ collections to six with more collections on the drawing board. As always, we are showing a number of exciting new high-end hand-knotted rugs in a range of fashion colors and styles ranging from updated-traditional to transitional to modern. Additionally for spring High Point, we are debuting noteworthy new Lori-Loom™ handcrafted collections. We want High Point customers to discover that our oversized ‘Mansion Sizes’ group of oversized rugs – which are available in 13 x 18’, 14 x 20’, 15 x 22’ and 16 x 24’ sizes – has grown again to include even more fashion colors and trend-worthy designs in today’s most popular style genres. These grand-sized rugs continue their popularity among designers and architects looking for stylish high-end rugs for commercial and large residential installations.”

Highlights for spring High Point among Kalaty hand-knotted designs: the elegant simplicity of the hand-knotted 100% premium hand-spun wool Rove Collection; the rugged textural designs of the hand-knotted 100% premium wool Montero Collection; the modern abstract designs and stylized striped motifs in the 100% wool hand-knotted Fiora Collection.

Kalaty’s handcrafted Lori-Loom™ highlights include: the versatile abstract and contemporary designs of the wool/Silkette™ Lyric Collection; the exquisitely carved graphic patterns of the Vega Collection; the textural qualities and relaxed attitude of the casual Genesis Collection.

ATLANTA, GA, April 2026 — Cappadocia Rugs will showcase their latest collections at High Point Market this month, offering a focused, hands-on approach to design and production. As designers increasingly prioritize quality, sourcing, and origin, the company preserves centuries-old techniques, material integrity, and long-standing artisan relationships.

Founded on a family tradition that began in Anatolia, Cappadocia Rugs remains closely connected to its production source. The company oversees each stage of creation, from the loom to its warehouse in Atlanta, maintaining a direct link between artisans and the finished product. Each rug is hand-knotted using carefully sourced wool and natural dyes, which allow the colors to settle into the fibers with richness and variation that faster methods can't match. Drawing on the Oushak weaving tradition while embracing transitional and modern designs, the collection balances heritage with contemporary style.

“Our goal is to create heirlooms that can be passed down through generations, just as the artistry has been carried on through our family,” said Ahmet Koker, CEO of Cappadocia Rugs. “High Point Market is an important opportunity for us to connect with the design community and build lasting relationships.”

Selected highlights from the line include the Antalya rug, a refined interpretation of Oushak design with a softer palette and low pile. The Artisan rug features celadon, terracotta, and washed indigo tones against an ivory background, while the Pure Luxe design offers a more sculptural surface, with raised and lower pile creating tonal contrast. All collections can be customized in size, shape, color, and pattern.

Cappadocia Rugs will exhibit at High Point Market from April 25 through April 29 at the Suites at Market Square, M-8041, Mezzanine. On Saturday, April 25, the company will host an open house with the owners from 1:00 to 4:00 PM, featuring Turkish delights and light refreshments.

April 6th, 2026 — KAS Rugs is proud to announce the promotion of Sandy Ford to Vice President of Sales & National Accounts. A dedicated leader with more than 15 years of service to the company, Ford brings a wealth of experience, industry knowledge, and a proven track record of success to her new role.
