​Handmade carpets are crafted through a meticulous and time-honored process that begins with selecting high-quality raw materials, such as wool, silk, or cotton. The process often starts with dyeing the yarn using natural or synthetic dyes to achieve the desired colors. Skilled artisans then weave the dyed yarn into intricate patterns using traditional techniques, such as knotting or tufting. In the knotting process, artisans tie individual knots of yarn onto a loom to create a dense and durable pile. This technique can be time-consuming, as each knot must be carefully placed to ensure consistency and quality. Once the weaving is complete, the carpet undergoes a washing and finishing process, which helps to set the colors, remove any excess dye, and enhance the softness of the fibers. The final steps involve trimming and combing the carpet to ensure an even surface and uniform appearance. Throughout the entire process, each carpet is a testament to the artisan’s skill and attention to detail, resulting in a unique and beautifully crafted piece that reflects both cultural heritage and personal craftsmanship.
