Constructed using a range of different methods, our rugs are handcrafted by our expert artisans. Our handwoven rugs are crafted on a loom. The loom has a wooden frame strung with vertical threads of cotton loops tightly. A handwoven rug is made up of warps and wefts, which are woven vertically and horizontally.

Our hand tufted rugs are made using a hand-operated tool which ‘tufts’ loops of yarn into a stretched canvas. This process is repeated to follow the design of the rug.

Every knot on our hand knotted rugs is weaved by hand. This method means the yarn is knotted around the vertical warp threads and a horizontal metal rod, and every new knot is a continuation from the previous one.

Hand loomed rug product presses fibre stands together, connecting them with thin threading and with no proper securing of the ends or sides.

The sustainable materials we use for our rugs offer numerous positive properties. Wool is resilient, stain-resistant, and insulating. Jute provides strength, biodegradability, and a warm aesthetic. Cotton offers softness, breathability, and moisture-wicking abilities. Together, these materials create durable, comfortable, and environmentally friendly rugs for your home.

Our rugs are crafted from sustainable materials, which are better for the environment then synthetic alternatives.

Buying sustainable rugs means you are also supporting local craft economies. This ensures that skills and techniques, that may otherwise disappear due to mass production, are preserved.

We recommend having some floor showing around the edges, so it doesn’t look like you’re recarpeting the full space. By strategically exposing the floor around the edges of the rug, we achieve a balanced aesthetic that maintains the integrity of your flooring while still enjoying the warmth and texture that our rugs provide. This approach creates a harmonious visual flow, allowing your rug to complement your existing decor rather than dominating it. Read about how to style your carpet in your home.
