The wool Wilton is made in many grades. Even when woven with a high pile, the woolen yarn is softer, the tufts larger, and consequently the design woven is less fine in detail than in worsted carpets. A special type of Wilton is known as Saxony because it was originally woven from Saxon yarns; these are tightly twisted and give exceptionally long wear; the carpet is very soft and heavy and lies flat. A Brussels carpet is woven on a Wilton loom, and is in fact a Wilton carpet with an uncut pile. An ingrain, or Scotch carpet, on the other hand, while woven on a Wilton loom, is a flat, pileless fabric that is woven like a plain weave cloth from predyed yarn. It is a reversible fabric and sometimes different colored threads are alternated in the warp to add to its textural interest. While the ingrain carpet was very popular during the Victorian period, it has fallen into disuse because it lacks the wearing qualities of pile Floor coverings.
