Complete your setup
Indian dhurrie is the workshop discipline that sits closest to the Indian house. The form was woven for floors, walls, takhats and palanquins, and its geometry was tuned to the shapes of the household rather than to the formal medallion grammar of the imported Persian carpet.
The piece occupied Two for four to five weeks on a flat loom. The weft was packed against a cotton warp by hand, beat by beat, with the design carried in the weaver's memory rather than read from a paper plan. There is no pile and no knot; the rug is fully reversible and the surface reads as cloth more than carpet.
The composition
A multi-toned palette dominates the composition. The geometry sits at considered scale, neither pushed forward as ornament nor pulled back into ground. Plant-derived dye gives the surface a soft register that synthetic colour cannot reach, and the wool ages into the palette rather than against it. The detail in the field is meant to be discovered by the foot before it is read by the eye, which is why the rug responds so well to a low, centred furniture arrangement. Across the first season of use the wool will oxidise into a slightly deeper register and the dye will find its final saturation against the warp.
The piece in a room
5' x 8' fits the central living arrangement of a small or medium flat. The rug is sized so the seating sits inside it on the front legs and the conversation circle is held inside its margins. The geometry is read whole from the threshold of the room and the colour resolves into its full saturation under afternoon light.
Care
Vacuum the surface once a week on suction. Both faces of the flatweave are usable, so the piece should be flipped at six-month intervals to even wear. Treat spills with a damp cotton cloth and cool water, blotting outward to inward. Dry-clean the rug every three to four years through a wool-trained cleaner to keep the foundation clear and the dye bright.

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.
