Complete your setup
A hand-knotted carpet is the only object you put on a floor that gains value through use. Foot traffic compresses the pile to a soft sheen. Vegetable dye deepens with light. The wool develops the patina that auction houses describe with the word "mellowing".
The piece took 2 weavers working approximately 4 months on a single beam. Thousands of persian-asymmetric knots, each one tied by feel rather than by count. The yarn is New Zealand wool, prepared in copper vats with vegetable dyes that mature for two to three weeks before the wool is lowered.
The composition
A ivory register sits at the centre of the composition, ringed by drawing that holds the eye without crowding it. The Gabbeh motif vocabulary is restrained. There is no padding. Light will lift the depth of the dye over the years and traffic will compress the pile into the soft sheen that distinguishes a long-lived carpet from a new one. The colour interaction continues to shift for the first decade of use, which is the point at which the rug reaches its mature palette.
What you are buying
At ₹46,199 the rug is an entry point to collecting hand-finished wool work. The fibre, the knot count, and the loom discipline match pieces sold at multiples of this price by Western dealers. Hand-knotted carpets do not depreciate. The pile compresses into a soft sheen, the dye deepens, and the rug is worth more in twenty years than it is today.
The piece in a room
At the size as listed, the rug holds its place as the focal element of a considered room. Pair with quiet upholstery and warm wood so the ivory field reads as the work the rest of the composition is arranged around.
Conservation
Rotate a half turn each spring and autumn so light and traffic age the fibre evenly. Vacuum weekly with suction only and the beater bar disengaged. Blot spills with clean cotton, never rub. A trained wool conservator should hand-wash the rug every five to seven years. With this care the carpet runs eighty years and outlives its first owner.

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.
