Complete your setup
The dhurrie is the flatweave carpet of the Indian subcontinent. Cotton or wool, woven on a horizontal loom, no pile, often reversible. Mughal-era palaces ordered them by the dozen. The drawing below sits in that direct, unornamented tradition.
The piece was hand-woven in India over 4 weeks on a horizontal loom by 2 weavers. There are no knots. The long-fibre jute weft is passed through the warp with a shuttle and beaten down with a comb at every pick, building the design by colour change rather than by surface pile. The result is a flat carpet that lies low to the floor and reads as a single piece of textile rather than as a layered surface. Each colour change in the field corresponds to a deliberate hand-bound interlock in the weave, which is what holds the design crisp at the edges. The piece reads at 5' x 8' (152 x 244 cm) in lavender, finished in India.
The composition
Flat, weft-faced colour blocks in lavender build the design by direct juxtaposition, with the small slits at every colour change that flatweaves always carry. There is no pile to hide behind, so every line is the line the weaver intended. The rug ages by losing dye depth at the surface only, never by matting, and a flatweave that comes off a horizontal loom built well lasts as long as a knotted carpet of the same fibre.
The piece in a room
5' x 8' (152 x 244 cm) sits under a two-seat sofa and a narrow coffee table, or anchors a writing desk in a study. The lavender register holds against pale walls and against warm wood floors with equal authority. Position the sofa with the front legs on the rug and the back legs on the floor. The composition holds at a low viewing angle from a seated position, which is the angle most of the day will be spent looking at it.
Care
Vacuum weekly with the beater bar off, both sides occasionally since flatweaves are reversible. Spot clean with cold water and a mild wool detergent on a clean cloth. Rotate twice a year so the colour ages evenly. Professional cleaning every three to four years.

Day-to-day care
- Vacuum gently once a week without a rotating brush bar — use the suction-only setting on hand-knotted or hand-tufted pieces.
- Rotate the rug 180° every 3-6 months so foot traffic and sunlight wear is even.
- Use a quality rug pad underneath for slip resistance and to extend life.
- Blot fresh spills immediately with a clean white cloth — do not rub. Work from the edge of the spill inward.
Deep cleaning
- Professional dry-cleaning is recommended every 12-24 months for hand-knotted carpets.
- Avoid steam cleaners and hot water on natural-fibre rugs (wool, silk, jute) — they can cause shrinkage and dye bleeding.
- For washable flat-weaves and cotton dhurries, machine-wash on a gentle cold cycle in a mesh bag.
Storage
- Roll (do not fold) the carpet around a clean cardboard tube, pile-side in.
- Wrap in breathable cotton sheeting (not plastic) and store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space.
- Use moth-protection sachets if storing wool for more than a season.

Frequently asked
How long will shipping take?
Most metros (Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata) receive their order in 3-5 business days. Tier-2 cities take 5-7 business days, and remote pin codes (J&K, North-East, Andamans) take 7-10 business days. Use the pin-code checker above for a concrete delivery date.
Will the colour exactly match the photo?
Each carpet is hand-crafted with natural-dye yarns, so a small variation in shade, pattern density, and tone is expected and is part of the authenticity of a handmade piece. Colours on screen also vary by monitor and lighting. If you are matching a specific decor, request a yarn sample before ordering.
Can I get a sample before buying?
Yes — we send 2-3 small yarn / pile samples for ₹500 (refundable against your purchase). Message us on WhatsApp with the SKU and your shipping pin code to arrange a sample.
What is your returns process?
Returns are accepted within 7 days of delivery in original condition (rolled, not folded; no pet hair, smoke, or stains). Email care@rugsville.in or message us on WhatsApp with your order number — we arrange free reverse pickup in most pin codes. Refunds are processed within 3-5 working days of receipt at our warehouse.
Do you take custom orders?
Yes. Custom-size, custom-colour, and custom-design hand-knotted carpets typically take 4-8 weeks depending on size and complexity. Minimum custom-order size is 4'×6'. Send us your brief on WhatsApp with the room photo and dimensions for a quote.
Is Cash on Delivery (COD) available?
