Traditional rugs usually include Turkish, Persian and Oriental rugs. These rugs have unique designs that include intricate motifs, flowers and medallions. They feature bold colors like dark navy, deep reds and rich golds. They are typically made of wool, silk and cotton.
These traditional rugs are hand-knotted and naturally dyed using vegetable dyes.
The hand-knotted technique of rug making is a very complex process. The rugs are made on a loom using an ancient technique that has been passed down for centuries. The weaver hand knots individual pieces of yarn into a loom to create the rug. This is a very detailed and intricate process that takes months to complete.
