The hues of dark or light color bands through a handmade rug is called Abrash. It is a uniquely identifiable characteristic of genuine oriental rug because the yarn is hand spun. It is not a flaw. Instead it adds value by proving the rug is really hand-made.

Hand Knotted rugs are the first choice of critics and collectors, as every knot of the rug is honed by a skilled weaver's hands, without any machine's interference. The quality of a hand-knotted carpet is determined by the number of knots per square inch, as some fine weavers can take up to a year to create a single average size rug. Wool is the primary material used to create these handmade rugs that are usually placed in a well-deserving high-price space. Hand-knotted rugs can hold up high traffic for more than 20 years, hence are a popular choice for hallways, living rooms, offices etc. These fine examples of craftsmanship silently tell the tale of a weaver's traditional rug weaving legacy.

All of our used rugs are professionally washed and cleaned.
