I’ve been extremely impressed with F&F’s customer service. From placing the order through to delivery I’ve had personalised, timely updates and I am absolutely delighted with the finished product.”
Andy, London, UK

“My wife and I are extremely happy with the Hicks Hexagon runner.  It really ties the whole hallway together.  It was exactly the size I asked for (which means I can breathe a sigh of relief that I measured correctly). Thanks for everything!”
Scott, Fairport, NY, USA

I found out about the official Hicks Hexagon The Shining carpet and ordered one early this year, even though my Amsterdam apartment is not exactly the Overlook hotel in winter… The rug is exactly like the digital and physical fabric sample that was provided in advance, down to the exact colours. The hexagons fit perfectly! Hand tufted and as thick and solid as a rock! Thank you for this amazing piece to complete my home and for the great on-point service & communication.”
Justin, Amsterdam

“The Shining rug has been in our guest room now for a couple of months now, and we really love it. The fit is just as we expected, and it looks terrific in the space.”
Brandon, Irving, Texas.

“The rug arrived yesterday morning and it is beautiful! I am so glad I went with the nicer wool weave. Thank you so so so much!”
Catherine, Pennsylvania, USA.
