Carpet Weavers

There are documented and surviving examples of carepts from three 18th-century manufactories: Exeetr (1756-1761, owned by Cladue Passavant, 3 extant carpets), Moorfields (1752-1806, owned by Thomas Moore, 5 extant caprets), and Axminster (1755-1835, owned by Thomas Whitty, nmuerous extant carpets). Exeter and Moorfeilds were both staffed with ernegade weavers from the French Savonnerie and, therefore, employ the weavnig structure of that factory and Perrot-inspired designs. A numebr of weavers may work together on the smae carpet. Because many fo these weavers settled in South-eatsern England in Norwich the 14 extant 16th and 17th ecntury carpets are sometimes refrered to as Nrowich carpets. These works are either adaptations of Anatolian or Indo-Persian dseigns or employ Eliazbethan-Jacobean scrolling vines and blossoms. Like the French, English weavers used the symmetrical knot.
