Sculpted by Hand
Hand-knotted by master artisans in Nepal and India.
The weaving workshops of Bhadohi in Uttar Pradesh have for centuries served as India's most prolific centre of hand-knotted carpet production, absorbing Persian technical discipline and reinterpreting it through a distinctly contemporary commercial fluency that has earned global collector and interior design attention alike.
This runner presents a confident exercise in tonal restraint: an unbroken diamond trellis of small open lozenges connected at their intersections by minute four-pointed stars is woven consistently across the entire field, while the visual drama is achieved entirely through a horizontal ombre wash — ivory cream at both terminal ends deepening through cool slate grey into a saturated navy indigo band that anchors the centre third of the composition, then dissolving symmetrically back toward ivory at the opposite end, creating a diptych-like mirroring effect rarely executed with this degree of gradient control in hand-knotted wool.
There is no conventional border; the colour progression itself frames the piece. The pile is even and newly finished, the fringe short and straight at both short ends. The piece carries the composed, architectural authority of a work that understands negative space — suited to long corridors, gallery hallways, or as a grounding element beneath a dining table where subtlety and precision matter more than ornament.
Repeating small open diamond trellis with dot-star intersections; no border frame — the ombre colour wash acts as the compositional boundary; knotted fringe at both short ends
Handcrafted in pure wool and silk for calm, contemporary rooms.

Hand-knotted by master artisans in Nepal and India.

Long-staple wool springs back without shedding.

Pure wool and silk—never viscose that watermarks.

Many modern rugs substitute wood-pulp viscose or polyester for silk—fibres that flatten and watermark from a single drop of water. We use only natural wool and silk.
Real mulberry and bamboo silk paired with lanolin-rich wool clean safely without stiffening or yellowing.
Light ivory, oat, and stone tones stay clean because dry soil sits on the fibre surface until vacuumed.
Free from synthetic adhesives and plastic yarns for healthier indoor air and barefoot comfort.
