Sarelli Interiors Textiles provides physical carpet samples for all standard and custom rug orders to ensure exact color matching and texture verification. Clients can request 30×30 centimeter physical strike-offs for hand-tufted and hand-knotted designs before finalizing full-scale production contracts.
Sarelli Interiors Textiles maintains an extensive archive of pre-made Colors & Samples for immediate dispatch. The Sarelli sample department ships standard 15×15 centimeter color poms and 30×30 centimeter structural samples globally using DHL Express. Reviewing physical carpet samples allows interior designers to evaluate the 4500 GSM pile density and confirm light reflection properties under specific room lighting conditions.
Standard carpet sample dimensions and material specifications
Standard Sarelli carpet samples measure exactly 30×30 centimeters and feature finished edges to demonstrate the final binding quality. Each standard sample includes a detailed specification label listing the exact knot count, pile height in millimeters, and fiber composition percentages.
Clients evaluating Rug Materials receive samples that accurately represent the final production quality. A standard Sarelli hand-knotted sample contains 100 knots per square inch. The Sarelli production team weaves these standard samples using 100 percent New Zealand wool or a 70 percent wool and 30 percent botanical silk blend. The 30×30 centimeter format provides enough surface area to display intricate pattern details and transition zones between different pile heights. Sarelli artisans carve the sample pile by hand to demonstrate the three-dimensional texture available in the full-scale production rugs.
Custom bespoke carpet sample production timelines
Producing a custom carpet sample requires 21 to 28 days from the date the client approves the initial digital rendering. Sarelli artisans weave these custom strike-offs entirely by hand to match specific Pantone color codes and unique architectural dimensions.
Projects requiring Bespoke Customization necessitate custom strike-offs. The Sarelli dye house requires 72 hours to formulate custom dye recipes for specific Pantone references. After dyeing the raw yarn, weavers spend approximately 40 hours constructing a 40×40 centimeter custom sample. Hand-Tufted Production samples typically ship within 14 days of design approval. Hand-knotted custom samples require 30 days of production time because the artisans tie each knot individually on traditional vertical looms.
Carpet sample shipping costs and refund policies
Sarelli Interiors Textiles charges a standard fee of 50 EUR for pre-made carpet samples and 150 EUR for custom-woven strike-offs. Sarelli fully credits these sample fees toward the final purchase invoice when the client places a full-scale rug order.
Sarelli ships all carpet samples via DHL Express with a guaranteed 48-hour delivery window to major European and North American cities. The 50 EUR standard sample fee covers both the physical material and the international priority shipping costs. Clients ordering custom strike-offs pay a 150 EUR development fee. Sarelli accounting automatically deducts the 150 EUR custom sample fee from the final production invoice if the total rug order exceeds 2000 EUR. Clients visiting the Sarelli Showroom in Italy can view the complete sample archive and borrow standard swatches free of charge for up to 14 days.
