Weaving History for Henry Ford’s Birthplace
Family-owned and operated, Langhorne’s relationship with the Ford Family, which began
with the mill’s initial purchase in 1930 of several pre-owned Ford looms, continues
with the weaving of a new, museum-quality wool carpet for Ford Home, Henry
Ford’s birthplace now located in Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan. Langhorne
was commissioned by the Henry Ford Museum to create a carpet for the legendary Michigan
auto pioneer’s home from his early years. Bill Morrow, whose great grandfather
bought the looms from Ford, says, “In many respects, the best thing that
happened to Langhorne Carpet was Ford’s decision to stop making carpet flooring
for his cars. That jump started our business 85 years ago.”

| A look at Langhorne's carpet for Ford Home |
The
Ford home project represents the latest in a decades long series of Langhorne
historic carpet reproductions. Others include the White House, home-museums of
several American presidents, and official governors’ residences.
Langhorne
is also the proud weaver of the distinctive border of the captivating West Wing
carpet featured in Season III “House of Cards.” (We previously uploaded a blog
post about Langhorne’s work on House of Cards. To read it,

coveted by curators and historic preservationists.
Belenky Interiors, LLC has used Langhorne Carpet over the years. There is nothing we don't love about the quality and beauty of their rugs.
