Frequently Asked Questions

What does hand-knotted actually mean?

Each knot is tied by hand onto the warp threads of a loom, so the pile is part of the rug's structure rather than punched into a backing and held with adhesive. It is the slowest and most durable way to make a rug - a 153 x 243 cm piece takes months on the loom, which is why hand-knotted costs more than hand-tufted and why it lasts decades rather than years.

Is it suitable for an office?

Yes - a hand-knotted wool rug handles chair traffic and foot traffic well, and absorbs the echo that hard flooring creates in a cabin or meeting area. Use chair coasters if you have a rolling chair, since castors wear any rug pile.

Why choose wool over a synthetic rug?

Wool springs back after being walked on instead of flattening permanently, resists soiling naturally, and is warm underfoot in winter without being stifling in summer. It also takes dye richly, which is why the colours in a wool rug stay deep for years.

Will it slip on a tiled or marble floor?

Any rug will slide on tile, marble or kota stone, which is most Indian flooring. Use an anti-slip underlay underneath - it stops the movement, adds cushioning underfoot and keeps the edges from curling up over time.

How do I clean and maintain it?

Vacuum on suction only with the beater bar or brush roll switched off - a rotating brush pulls at hand-tied knots. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth rather than rubbing, rotate the rug every few months so it wears evenly, and have it professionally cleaned every year or two.
