Runners are generally woven using either wool or synthetic pile fibers. Regardless of the fiber, most woven products are constructed in similar ways on the same types of looms. Wool products tend to vary more in the types of looms used to weave them. Each fiber comes in an array of qualities and prices, but synthetic fiber is typically a less expensive choice. Our product selection is split nearly in half by wool or synthetic options. Since we have such a vast collection, hundreds of choices are offered in each fiber.
