A Touch of Tradition

Introduce a vibrant splash of culture and comfort into your home with this meticulously crafted dhurrie. Woven in the time-honored kilim style, its flatweave construction makes it a durable and versatile addition to any room. Unlike pile rugs, the absence of a raised nap makes it easy to clean and ideal for high-traffic areas. Each thread tells a story, reflecting the rich heritage of the artisans who poured their skill and dedication into creating this stunning piece. The intricate patterns are not just decorative; they are a testament to the enduring legacy of traditional weaving techniques.

Artistry in Every Detail

The eye is immediately drawn to the captivating interplay of colors and geometric motifs that adorn this exceptional floor covering. A warm palette of maroons, citrons, and other carefully chosen hues creates a visually stunning composition. The central field, a soothing citron, provides a gentle backdrop for the more vibrant elements. The borders are defined by intricate bands of geometric shapes, each painstakingly woven to create a harmonious and balanced design. The geometric patterns, reminiscent of traditional symbols, add a layer of depth and meaning to the rug, making it not just a decorative piece but a cultural artifact. The fringe adds a touch of whimsical charm, completing the overall aesthetic with a subtle yet impactful detail.

The Comfort of Pure Wool

Experience the luxurious feel of pure wool underfoot. This natural fiber not only offers exceptional comfort but also boasts inherent resilience and durability. Wool is naturally stain-resistant and easy to care for, ensuring that your dhurrie will maintain its beauty for years to come. The natural texture of wool provides a subtle tactile experience, adding a layer of sensory pleasure to your living space. More than just a visual element, the wool also provides a degree of warmth.

Crafted with Care, Made to Last

This piece has been woven with pride in Sitapur, a region renowned for its skilled artisans and centuries-old weaving traditions. Each dhurrie is a testament to the dedication and craftsmanship passed down through generations. The attention to detail and commitment to quality are evident in every aspect of this exquisite creation, from the selection of the finest wool to the meticulous execution of the intricate patterns. By bringing this rug into your home, you are not just acquiring a beautiful floor covering, but also supporting the preservation of traditional crafts and empowering artisan communities.

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.
