Cadrys has been the choice of leading design magazines and stylists for decades. Partnerships that are truly valued and evolve every year. These authoritative voices call on Cadrys as they appreciate the quality and craftsmanship produced in every piece.
Craftsmanship
For artisans, time passes gradually. Our artisans sit in the open air, gazing into the nature while enjoying their tea. They are never pressured for time, because creativity and passion require room and freedom. We believe in skilled crafts and trades, and avoid manufactured looking structures because they remove the artistic soul. Our carpets are not only home furnishings, but are a form of aesthetics that touch the soul.
Production is not bound to strict guidelines, but to emotion and inspiration. Small irregularities, deviations, or leaps in colour do not reduce the value of pieces, but they reflect the belief that true beauty lies in imperfection.
We are not committed to any trends or fashion, but class and tradition. Every pattern has a meaning and is inspired by the Persian art, architecture, and culture.
Ethical Production
All our handmade rugs are certified by GoodWeave® which ensures no child labour is used in our production and that fair and ethical working conditions are maintained.
To provide an essence of how rugs are produced by many of our suppliers, we would like to recite the incredibly apt words of Lila Valaden.
The art of carpet weaving is one of the oldest cultural achievements of many nations. The complete process is based on an old tradition allowing nomads a self-sufficient and sustainable way of life. Contributing to maintaining this age old craft, whilst supporting local communities, families and education. For us, sustainability is not just a word. It sits at the heart of how we trade and produce carpets around the world.

The Cadrys are proud to be Australia’s oldest and leading retailer in Antique, Classic and Contemporary Rugs. This legacy has been passed down from generation to generation with our roots in this business dating back to the late 1800’s.
