"I remember my grandfather had an Axminster that could seat twelve — but that was before carpets were banned, of course."
Bartemius Crouch Snr[src]

An Axminster is a type of carpet, named after the town in which they were originally manufactured, notable for its high-quality loom and varying colours and patterns. Axminsters had been enchanted by wizards and witches for the purpose of turning them into flying carpets. However this practice was illegal as carpets were now designated as Muggle artefacts in Britain.[1]
