### Swatches: a small stair runner sample,

(or for a  hall runner) a small cutting of a carpet runner product. A swatch is the most cost effective and often fastest way to see a product or a number of products.

Carpet Runner Sample Swatches may ship from more than one location so you may receive more than one package delivered over a number of days.

- Swatches do not represent the dye lot of existing stock – as with any textile, [dye lots](https://www.stairrunnerstore.com/docs/dye-lot/) will vary.
- Most swatches are approx. 6" x 12". Some may be smaller due to availability.
- Serging (edge finish on you runner material) may vary in color, size or texture from that of a swatch or sample.
- Some swatches require return to us. In these instances, your order will include a prepaid, labeled envelope for easy return.

- Please [Contact Us](/contact-us/) with questions about your runner project, our products or our services.
