The Dabbieri Collection employs the finest in natural and new
fibers, each of which presents unique strengths for covering a
variety of spaces and uses.
Fibers
Wool
The first choice for the most discerning buyer, wool is widely
considered to be the finest yarn available, offering a luxurious
look with a soft, comfortable feel. Wool is a sustainable product
that wears exceptionally well, and ages beautifully.
Nylon
Versatile, wear-resistant and easy to clean, nylon is a wonderful
new fiber choice for high-traffic areas. This fiber feels soft
underfoot and provides a lustrous look, reproducing colors
radiantly.
Olefin
The most moderately priced new fiber, olefin was originally
developed for exterior use, and is often used in textured styles.
Olefin resists stains, fading, and moisture, but can be a bit less
resilient than nylon.
Textures
As with color, the texture of carpet - subtle to dramatic,
casual to formal, classic to contemporary - is an essential part of
creating the look of your space.
Loop Pile
Looped yarn creates a coarser, more contemporary, wool-like look
suitable for a variety of styles. Good for disguising dirt,
footprints and vacuum marks. Ideal for high traffic areas.
Level Loop
Created with loops of yarn evenly woven into the carpet backing.
The higher the loop, the more luxurious the appearance.
Multi-Level Loop
Features loops varying in height for an extra textured
appearance.
Cut and Loop
A combination of cut and looped fibers create a sculpted,
patterned effect.
Cut Pile
A best-seller for its luxurious feel and versatility, cut pile
carpet features yarns that are cut across and stand straight
up.
Velvet/Plush
Soft and level. Ideal for lower-traffic formal areas such as
dining rooms, living rooms and master bedrooms.
Saxony
Lightly twisted yarns offer softness with enhanced durability.
Appropriate for both formal and informal areas.

footprints and vacuum tracks. Supple feel makes it popular for
informal areas like family rooms and bedrooms.
Frieze

informal areas.
