A rug that becomes a tapestry? Platinum Custom Rugs makes it happen.
Imagine enhancing your interior design project with a tapestry. The first thing you’ll likely do is look for a manufacturer who can create one that matches the style and vision you want to bring to your client’s space but all you find are old school, traditional tapestries that could overwhelm a modern living room or a more refined, contemporary setting.
Now, picture a Platinum Custom Rugs piece: artisanal, luxurious, with clean modern lines and fully customizable leaving the floor to become a true wall tapestry. Sounds impossible?
At Platinum Custom Rugs, we reinvent textile tradition with bespoke luxury rugs that can transform a simple “horizontal” product into a “vertical” design statement honoring the artistry and heritage of traditional tapestries.

Wall rugs or tapestry? Here’s the right definition.
We’re not traditional tapestry makers nor do we claim to replace those who have made the art of tapestry their legacy. At Platinum Custom Rugs, we specialize in luxury textile creations for the floor, where customization is taken to the highest level: size, color, texture, materials, and every single design detail can be tailored to perfection. Bespoke rugs have always been at the heart of our philosophy.
Today, we add a new dimensional layer to our creations. Inspired by the beauty of classic tapestries, we now design rugs meant for vertical display. That’s why ours are true wall rugs.
Thanks to their artisanal quality, they become focal points in a space enhancing neutral walls or creating dialogue with furniture and surfaces. They completely change the way a room is “read” in an interior project, as our wall rugs bring unique effects that shift with orientation, light, and surrounding colors.
Why a hand-knotted rug is the perfect modern wall tapestry?
At Platinum Custom Rugs, we believe the best modern wall tapestry is, without a doubt, the hand-knotted rug. This structure is ideal when a rug is meant to be hung, because it:
Provides thickness and texture
- The knots add more depth and substance to the weave, giving the textile body and relief—perfect for adding visual depth to the design.
Distributes weight more evenly
- The high knot density ensures that the rug's weight is evenly spread, reducing stress on the hanging system and preventing sagging or damage.
Stands the test of time
- Hand-knotted rugs are more resistant to tension and vibration, which is essential when a rug transitions from floor to wall as a tapestry.

How are Platinum Custom Rugs luxury rugs turned into wall tapestries?
For our luxury rugs, we use only the finest fibers either individually or blended to ensure top tier quality and full customization. This means that once hung on a wall, your tapestry will showcase exceptional material richness, impeccable handcrafted construction, and unmatched beauty.
Here are some of the premium materials you can choose for your tapestry project:
- Wool: Warm, cozy, and excellent at holding color.
- Silk: Glossy and delicate, it highlights reflections and intricate details.
- Linen and Tencel: Lightweight, natural weaves ideal for a more textured effect.
- Viscose: Offers luminous effects, perfect for dynamic patterns.
- Fiber blends: Combining different materials creates unique surfaces, with contrasting textures and luster.
Each hand knotted Platinum Custom Rug offers an incredible range of designs and textures from minimal geometrics to intricate patterns and subtle tonal solids. You can start from one of our curated collections or develop a completely bespoke project, choosing the exact colors, shapes, and weaves that fit your vision.
How to hang a tapestry on the wall?
Turning a hand knotted rug into a tapestry requires a secure yet non invasive mounting system. Here are some discreet and effective ways to hang it on the wall without compromising the aesthetics of the room:
Velcro with a rigid bar
How it works:
- A fabric loop strip is sewn to the back of the rug (top side).
- The hook side of the Velcro is applied to the wall.
- A rigid bar (wood or metal) is inserted into a sewn pocket behind the rug.
- Loop and hook are gently pressed together.
Benefits: Even weight distribution, no direct perforation of the rug, easy to remove.
Internal sleeve with crossbar
How it works:
- A wide sleeve is sewn across the top back of the rug.
- A rod (wood or metal) is inserted into the sleeve.
- The rod rests on two wall-mounted brackets.
Benefits: Invisible mounting system, the rug’s surface remains intact.
Suspended frame
How it works:
- A lightweight wooden frame is built to match the rug's dimensions.
- The rug is secured to the frame with padded staples or tension pins.
- Nails or hooks on the wall support the frame.
Benefits: Picture like appearance, edge protection, stable installation.
Decorative clips
How it works:
- Clamp style binder clips are attached along the top edge of the rug.
- Each clip hangs from a small nail or hook.
Benefits: Quick to install and remove, ideal for temporary displays or frequent changes.

A rug can be so much more than just a home accessory.
How to protect and preserve a Platinum Custom Rugs wall tapestry?
To ensure your tapestry remains in pristine condition over time, it’s important to follow a few best practices:
Avoid direct sunlight
UV rays from windows or large glass surfaces can fade even the finest natural fibers. Position your tapestry away from direct sunlight or use UV-protective glass or curtains.
Control humidity
Keep the room’s relative humidity between 40% and 60% to prevent mold growth or excessive dryness, which can damage the fibers.
Light dusting
Use a soft bristle brush to gently remove dust once every 1–2 months.
Low-power vacuuming
Use a non rotating brush attachment, keeping a few centimeters of distance from the surface to avoid abrasion.
Check mounting systems
At least once a year, inspect clips, bars, frames, and wall supports to ensure everything remains stable and secure.
Rotate the tapestry
If it’s exposed to light or heat, rotate it periodically to ensure even aging and avoid discoloration on just one side.
Professional cleaning
Avoid harsh cleaners. For deep cleaning, rely on textile care specialists who understand how to treat delicate, high-end materials safely and effectively.
