Info about - Rugs 

 

Every single knot of our Oriental rugs is tied by hand. A rug can consist of 25 to over 1000 knots per square inch. A skillful weaver is able to tie a knot in about ten seconds, meaning 6 knots per minute or 360 knots per hour. It would take a skillful weaver 4480 hours to weave a 8x10 rug with a density of 140 knots per square inch. If we divide this number by 8-hour working days, that means it would take one weaver 560 days (approximately one and a half years) to weave such a rug. A rug as large as a 8x10 is usually woven in a workshop or master workshop by two or three weavers, so the above time can be reduced by half or third. Handmade rugs are truly functional and exceptional works of art created with great patience and love.
