Enchanting Design

Immerse yourself in a world of serene beauty with this exquisitely crafted asana mat. The delicate ivory canvas provides a soft backdrop for the captivating scene that unfolds across its surface. A row of ducks gracefully glide across gently rippling waters, their forms rendered in meticulous detail with resham threads. The ducks themselves are a study in artistic finesse. Each one boasts a unique character, brought to life through an intricate tapestry of colors and textures. Soft yellows and purples interplay to create a sense of depth and movement in their plumage. The surrounding flora adds another layer of visual interest. Elegant plants, with their delicate blooms, frame the aquatic scene, enhancing the sense of tranquility and harmony. The overall effect is one of understated elegance, a piece that elevates any space with its artistic presence.

Artisanal Craftsmanship

This asana mat is more than just a decorative piece; it's a testament to the skill and dedication of the artisans who brought it to life. Crafted entirely by hand, each stitch is a testament to their expertise. The use of resham, a fine silk thread, lends a subtle sheen and luxurious feel to the mat, enhancing its tactile appeal. The canvas backing provides a sturdy foundation, ensuring that the mat maintains its shape and integrity over time. The careful attention to detail extends to the edges, which are neatly finished to prevent fraying. This commitment to quality ensures that this mat will be a treasured possession for years to come.

Versatile Décor

With dimensions of 24 inches by 36 inches, this mat is perfectly sized for a variety of uses. While its original intention might be for yoga and meditation practices, its versatility extends far beyond the realm of wellness. Consider using it as a decorative rug in a living room, bedroom, or study. Its gentle colors and soothing design create a calming atmosphere, making it ideal for spaces where relaxation is paramount. It can be placed beneath a coffee table, at the foot of a bed, or even hung on a wall as a unique piece of art. Its understated elegance also makes it a suitable addition to more formal settings. Imagine it as a focal point in a hallway or entryway, welcoming guests with its serene beauty. The possibilities are endless, limited only by your imagination. This mat is a seamless addition to both modern and traditional spaces, adding a touch of refined artistry to any décor.

From Fiber to Finery: Unveiling the Craftsmanship Behind Handmade Rug Creation

A carpet serves as a textile floor covering and can be seen in almost all Asian homes. European nations also are fascinated by their beauty and thus hand-knotted carpets are in great demand all over the world. A carpet typically consists of an upper layer of fabric and backing attached to it. Carpets can be made in any color by using dyed fibers. Different types of motifs and patterns are fabricated or embroidered on the fabric to beautify the floor. Indian craftsmen make carpets in such a way that every piece bears designs with attention to detail. Bright colors and high-quality fabric are used for their production.

Hand-knotted carpets are made using different types of techniques such as the Turkish knot (symmetrical), Persian knot (asymmetrical), Jufti Knot (tied around four warps instead of two), or Spanish knot (solo warp symmetrical). Common materials used in the making of the finest carpets are cotton, silk, wool, and jute.

1. Wool collection and processing

This is the step in the carpet-making process in which the best quality raw wool is imported or bought from the market. It is then cleaned and any unwanted particles are removed by washing it thoroughly. Now the clean wool is dried in the sun for two to three days.

2. Woolen yarn spinning

Spinning involves a process called carding which is either done on carding rollers run by hand or with the help of a carding brush. This wool is now spun into yarn by spinning it on a spinning wheel, also called a charkha. The thickness of the yarn depends on the type and quality of the carpet to be made.

3. Dyeing yarn

After the yarn is obtained, it is then dyed into different colors as per the requirement. The dyed yarn is now allowed to be sun-dried for at least two days.

4. Designing

Designing a carpet is time-consuming and the most important step. The size, designs/patterns, and colors of the carpet contribute to the overall look of the carpet. The artisan first draws the design on paper and then copies it on graph paper.

5. Weaving (Hand-knotting)

Weaving involves two important parts; weft (dyed yarn) and warp (reeled yarn). The warp yarn is loaded to the vertical loom and the graph paper containing the carpet sample design is put in front of the weaver. Each weft yarn is knotted to each warp yarn by hand. In this way, the whole carpet is weaved and the desired pattern is obtained.

6. Washing

The carpet is now sent for washing multiple times with water and cleansing agents to remove dust and dirt from it.

7. Clipping and Binding

Now any protruding knots and extra threads are cut off using scissors and clippers. Now the craftsmen ensure that all four sides of the carpet and weaves are locked by stitches so that the carpet remains intact and strong.

8. Final washing and drying

The carpet is again washed and dried for the last time to make it appear absolutely neat and clean, ready to be put for sale.

Handmade carpets are often more expensive than those made by machines. It takes a minimum of six months to complete one carpet and this elaborate process involves around 20 - 25 artisans working at the same time.
