Oh thank you... it's a small silk rug.. area is 3.6 sq' and the question is about the fringe that flops if hung vertically. I am leaning towards the bevel idea.
I usually use tulle, if you choose something in the same color as the fringe, it becomes near invisible.
I've done a number of these. I cut an opening in the matboard/ foamcore the size of the rug. The rug sets in that and I arrange the fringe on the matboard. A Direct Contact Overlay with acrylic should keep the fringe in place. The rug is set down so the acrylic isn't resting on it so much that it would flatten any pile. A plus is that nothing is needed to be attached to the rug itself.
