Capel Rugs

Capel Rugs  has become synonymous with quality—in North Carolina and beyond. In 1917  17-year-old North Carolinian founder  A. Leon Capel started a company manufacturing mule plow lines and ropes. He named his company Gee-Haw, because mules back then had a language all their own: “Gee” for turn right, “Haw” for turn left.

Shortly after, while in Atlanta to find distributors for his goods, Leon saw a mechanical tractor that could outperform mules in the field. Leon quickly surmised that his new company might not be part of the future.

Instead of continuing in the farm implement business, he used the raw material from his venture Gee-Haw Plow Lines. Leon fashioned braids and created the very first reversible braided rug, calling it “New Departure.” This was the beginning of the Capel family rug business.

Not long after, in 1919, the Sears Roebuck catalog included 20″x30″ Capel braided rugs. That year, Sears bought 5000 of these scatter rugs.

Among Capel rugs distinctions:

A Capel rug appeared in Netflix original series Grace and Frankie  in 2015. Also one was in Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi classic, E.T. in 1984.
