Collection Spotlight: Stanton’s Pristine Plaid

When clients are looking for a carpet that feels both timeless and practical, Stanton Pristine Plaid is a standout choice.

Made from 100% wool, this carpet combines natural durability with a refined plaid pattern that works beautifully in a wide range of interiors.

We recently completed two custom installations using this style in the Bluestone colorway. A custom stair runner in Crestwood, NY, and a custom area rug in Forest Hills, Queens. While the applications were different, both projects highlight how versatile and elegant this wool carpet can be when tailored to the space.

Why Choose Stanton Pristine Plaid Bluestone?

Stanton Pristine Plaid offers the perfect balance of design and performance, especially for homes where durability matters just as much as appearance. The subtle variation in the plaid helps disguise everyday wear, making it a smart option for families and active households.

For clients looking for a faster turnaround and a more cost conscious option, Stanton Pristine Plaid color Bluestone is currently in stock at our Queens warehouse. Having this roll available locally allows us to move quickly from selection to fabrication and installation without the extended lead times often associated with special order materials.

If the Bluestone colorway isn’t the right fit for your space, we can also show you other color options available in the Stanton Pristine Plaid collection, which may be ordered directly from the manufacturer. This style is so popular, Stanton is adding more colors to the collection in 2026…stay tuned!

Custom Stair Runner Installation in Crestwood, NY

For this Crestwood home, our clients were looking for a stair runner that would feel warm and inviting while standing up to daily use by their family. Stanton Pristine Plaid Bluestone was an excellent fit.

The plaid pattern adds just enough detail to elevate the staircase, while the bluestone tone works beautifully with the surrounding finishes. Wool carpet is also an ideal choice for stairs because it provides natural grip, sound absorption, and durability.

Custom Sized Rug in Forest Hills, Queens

In Forest Hills, we used the same Stanton Pristine Plaid Bluestone carpet to create a custom area rug for a private residence. This project demonstrates how well this pattern translates beyond stairs and runners.

Forrest Hills Stanton Pristine Plaid Custom Rug Install

As a rug, the plaid design helps anchor the room and adds structure without feeling too bold. The bluestone color provides contrast while remaining neutral enough to blend seamlessly with existing furnishings.

This custom rug was cut to size specifically for the room and finished with a clean narrow cotton binding.
