We Offer Collegiate UGA and Georgia Tech Rugs

Barrier Island Collection has earned the rights to produce and distribute hand-loomed wool rugs for two schools in our home state of Georgia.  These rugs are hard wearing decorative pieces that are design oriented, not only for media rooms, but for the entire house.  Our rugs are available in sizes 3 x 5  to  10 x 14, as well as runners and custom sizes.  These wool, reversible rugs can withstand heavy traffic.  All will be custom loomed for your order.  We use only world class quality materials with the highest design standards.
