Collection: Hand-Knotted Rugs

Hand knotted rugs are vastly more durable and reliable as a heirloom investment than many other types of rugs. When choosing a rug, the many variations available may look strikingly similar when hanging in display, but it is important to understand that there really are big advantages to purchasing a hand-knotted rug. Attention to detail is perhaps the top difference between mass-produced rugs and hand-knotted rugs.

Mass produced rugs typically run in batches on mostly automated machinery and is typically viewed for defects only after the rug is completed. With a hand-knotted rug, a master craftsman works meticulously, inch-by-inch, to make sure every detail of the rug meets their criteria. 
Material quality is also a huge advantage owing to the durability of a hand-knotted rug. A mass-produced rug could likely incorporate many different materials, including synthetic items that will not stand up to heavy or long-term use. Hand-knotted rugs are crafted with only the best natural fibers such as wool, silk, or a wool-silk blend. Perhaps the most ideal characteristic of a hand-knotted rug is that because it is constructed by a human being over an extended period, each rug produced is a unique work of art.
