Default 409 Carpets

When I read Knox Carpets I thought the writer of this message was pulling my
leg, as that happens to be my surname (no, not Legg).
Wilton it seems patented their first loom in 1741. They are always woven,
since then by machine, using up to 5 colours, and are very hard wearing.
I assume they are now bankrupt?
