Mary Quant’s name has appeared on a multitude of products from clothing to cosmetics since the mid-sixties. Now the British designer has launched out into a new field, designing a range of wool carpets. A British company, Templeton Carpets, Ltd, launched the carpets in acrylic two years ago. They soon found, however, that the young sophisticated market for whom their products were designed, expected quality. In carpets they wanted wool. Mary Quant is pleased with the latest move to wool: “I think that people are more and more interested in natural fibres, and the quality and luxury of wool is just fabulous,” she says.
