Hand-Knotted Area Rugs

Add Artistic Flair to Your Space Using Hand-Knotted Rugs

The construction of a hand knotted rug involves skill, patience, and dedication, as these rugs take time to make. Weavers tie the individual knots separately, enabling them to create detailed design and motifs. They then weave warp or vertical strands on a loom. The pile or foundation of a hand knotted rug is made when weavers tie weft or horizontal threads and interweaving them with the warp threads. They fasten a newly-created knot by tying previous knots to the warp strands and then cutting and knotting them.

Weavers use numerous techniques like Senneh, Ghiordes, or Jufti knots to construct various patterns and designs on the rug. They also utilize different materials like wool and silk to create hand knotted wool and silk rugs. Hand knotted wool rugs are durable and have a smooth texture, while silk rugs are much more lavish and expensive.
