The Creation Of A Rug:
The Wool
Only 100% pure Himalayan sheep wool
is used in this rug which is considered to be the best in the world for it's
texture and strength.
Himalayan sheep wool is lustrous,
stain resistant, flexible and strong enough to withstand furniture pressure
marks.
Carding
Highly skilled weavers "Hand
Card" the wool into strands which helps maintain the raw strength
and flexibility inherent in Himalayan sheep wool.
After carding, the
wool is spun by hand to create the yarn for the rugs and
prepared
for coloration.
Dyeing
Only 100% natural
vegetable dyes from materials such as tree barks, root leaves, and
fruit peels are used to produce colors that are natural and pleasing
to the eye.
Weaving
This Tibetan rug is woven on a
wooden vertical loom with a warp which runs the entire length of the
rug.
The weaving process is
meticulously performed by highly-skilled weavers in Tibet.
This rug is hand-knotted to
ensure quality and a distinctiveness that allows for longer wear, more
soil resistant and ease of cleaning compared to machine-made rugs.
Smoothing
A traditional Tibetan process of
smoothing allows the thickness of the wool to be adjusted.
The fringes are set after the
smoothing has been completed.
Washing
The rug is washed multiple times
using solutions which soften, improve luster and the
feeling of the yarn and improve the color-fastness of the vegetable-dyed
yarn.
Finalizing
To add a unique and final touch,
designs are Hand-Carved onto the rug surface.
Ensuring Quality
Each rug is checked multiple
times by the detail-oriented quality control team of Tibetan
weavers.
