The Art Of Making

Our flat weave designs are woven at an artisan co-operative in Chunar, using a pit loom.

They are created by interlocking warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) threads. The rugs woven using this method do not have a pile and are reversible.

A pit loom is literally hung over a pit dug out of the ground, and provides a comfortable seating position for the weaver. The pit creates ideal conditions for cotton weaving as it responds much better to humid conditions, preventing the yarn from becoming brittle and snapping.
