Welcome a piece of Kashmiri heritage into your home with this handmade woolen carpet, that is woven carefully by master artisans of Srinagar. The foundation is built on strong cotton warps and wefts, stretched with precision on the loom. Onto this base, 3-ply woolen yarn is knotted by hand, which gives the rug its depth, warmth, and character. It has been finished with an antique look, this carpet isn’t just a floor covering but a touch of timeless culture. In Kashmir, carpet weaving has been practiced since the time of Hazrat Mir Syed Ali Hamdani and reached its glory under Zain-ul-Abidin. Each design begins with the talim (the coded pattern), then passes through dyeing, knotting, and weeks of patient handwork.
The carpet’s central section features a predominantly blue and white geometric pattern, with a series of interconnected diamonds and floral motifs. These diamonds are adorned with smaller, darker blue and black shapes, which adds depth and visual interest to the design. The border of the carpet is equally impressive, with a repeating pattern of white and blue shapes that resemble leaves or flowers. Its border is further accentuated by a thin green line, which adds a touch of contrast and helps to frame the central design. Whether used for floor covering, wall hanging, or even draped over furniture, this Kashmiri handicraft brings charm and a sense of unity to your living space. Truly, a handmade heirloom made to last.
