In 1997 Ann & David Sutherland revolutionized the textile industry by introducing a luxury fabric with a soft hand, strong enough for the outdoors. Made from 100% solution-dyed acrylic (SDA) yarns, Perennials, from the beginning, has let clients live their lives without worrying about stains, fading or mildew.
In 2013 luxury SDA headed underfoot with the launch of the first-ever SDA rug by Perennials. An unexpectedly soft rug you could use indoors or out, the collection started with Flatwoven and quickly grew into Tibetan Knot and Dropstitch.
Today
Two decades later, Perennials is recognized as the designer’s dream for both contract and residential applications. Using the same passion for design and respect for craftsmanship as when founded, Perennials offers 8,000+ pom colors, four constructions, and hundreds of designs. All backed by Perennials' guarantee of bleach cleanable and fade-resistant products.
It started with the simple desire to make great rugs. Ann and David found the perfect fiber, then sought to expand their luxury performance offering by finding a solution to making rugs responsibly. India’s generations-long history of rug weaving made it a natural choice for Perennials' rug expansion.
Starting with Perennials 100% solution-dyed acrylic fiber, weavers carry out every stage of rug making by hand. From spinning the yarns to knotting the rugs, then trimming the pile, we obsess over every detail. In 2023 the Government of India bestowed a prestigious honor upon Perennials, deeming us the " Best Rug Facility of India " under their “Invest India” initiative.
- Ann Sutherland, Founder “
It's the construction of the rugs, the ability to work with various methods, that make our products so successful. One of the biggest challenges, and successes, was the ability to teach traditional weavers to work with the material
in the same way they work with cotton, wool, silk, etc.”
- Shivmohan Yadaz, Weaver “
Perennials knows that the innate beauty of weaving comes from the hand of the artisan who pours his heart and soul into it.”
The softest and most lush pile, each heirloom rug is hand-knotted with our most knots per square inch. The dense pile features hand-carved details, with an overall rug height that averages 2/5 of an inch. These rugs are more appropriate for use indoors or in covered areas.
Perennials’ flatwoven artisanal rugs feature subtle color blending and an unbelievably soft feel. A tailored binding gives a clean finish to the horizontal edges, while the selvedges are left intentionally visible to show the craftsmanship of each hand-woven rug. These rugs are ideal for use indoors or out.
Toeing the line between a flatwoven and a pile, the dimensional structure of our handwoven dropstitch rugs combines the subtle color blending of our flatwoven rugs with low pile height elements for a lush textural effect.
Ideal for area rugs and wall-to-wall projects, tufted rugs are crafted with rigid backing making them amenable to all skill-level installers. While customization is limited compared to our handwoven designs, tufted rugs maintain our performance promise at a more attainable price point.
- Design Director, Amy Williams, on the Wabi Sabi collection rugs “
I was captivated by the simplicity and elegance of Japanese natural elements and their time-honored craftsmanship.”

Let’s face it, you’re going to spill something on that rug of yours. But fear not with Perennials.
Made with 100% solution-dyed acrylic yarns, these rugs are a cinch to clean.
Regular vacuuming is recommended to remove loose soil and dirt. To prevent damage to yarn fibers, use a canister vacuum without a beater or set the beater bar to the highest setting.
Remove spills immediately to avoid staining. Blot excess liquid from the surface and gently dab with a clean, damp cloth. Use a mild detergent if needed to remove the spill. Thoroughly rinse with clean water and air dry.
Chlorine bleach can be safely used for stubborn stain removal. Use a diluted solution of one part bleach to two parts water. Thoroughly rinse with clean water and air dry.
Heavy foot traffic and exposure to the elements can grind dirt into the rug’s surface, causing a dingy appearance. Powerwash Perennials Flatwoven rugs to remove surface dirt and return the rug to it’s true colors. Allow the rug to dry thoroughly before reinstalling.
Professional cleaning service is recommended when on-site cleaning is not possible. Advise cleaners to use low-heat steam settings to avoid damage to solution-dyed acrylic yarn fibers.
