Luxury 100% New Zealand wool carpet for Seaford home
At V.R. Flowers & Son, we take real pride in helping our customers find the perfect flooring for their homes. Recently, we had the pleasure of fitting the Durham Alternates Herringbone carpet for one of our Seaford customers who was delighted with the transformation it made to his stairs, hall, landing and lounge.
Why we love the Herringbone
The Durham Alternates range by Hugh Mackay is already a favourite of ours, but the Herringbone design really stands out. Made from 100% New Zealand wool, it combines natural softness with durability, giving a luxurious feel underfoot while being tough enough for everyday family life.
This particular carpet is built with a loop pile construction, which creates a textured look and hard-wearing finish, ideal for busy homes. It also has a fleece backing and a generous pile weight of 1300 g/m², it’s a premium choice that’s made to last.
Warm, cosy & luxurious
Especially impressive is the natural warmth this pure wool carpet adds to any home. With a tog rating of 1.80, it offers excellent insulation and is rated for heavy domestic use, so it will retain it's charm for many years in high-traffic areas like hallways and stairs.
Another great bonus - the wool is naturally moth resistant, so it not only looks stunning but also stays protected for years to come.
Style that fits any home
The Herringbone design comes in a beautiful range of neutral, nature-inspired colours such as Oatmeal, Pale Oak, Sapwood, Winter Mist, Pencil Point, and more. It’s available in both 4m and 5m widths, making it flexible for all kinds of room layouts. For this project in Seaford, the chosen shade, Sixpenny, worked perfectly to create a timeless, elegant look that complemented their home.
A job well done
Fitting this carpet was an absolute pleasure for our team. Seeing the finished result and the appreciation from our customer reminded us why we love what we do. The Durham Alternates Herringbone was the perfect choice for their home and looked stunning.
