Every rug – let me correct – Every handmade rug holds a story of composure, passion, and luxury. Each finely crafted rug carries historical richness, warmth, and ancestral wisdom. It’s not just mere strands of thread knotted together but tales of the past intertwined into patterns. A handmade design rug is a living testament to the timeless art of craftsmanship, proving that it is not made but designed to be a special part of your home. At Asharys, every rug defines an artisan’s skill and techniques passed down through generations, making every piece an eternal creation.
What Makes Handmade Rugs So Special?
Hand knotting or hand tufting a rug isn’t just another skill to learn and do. It is not a task but a time-intensive art form that takes years of practice and precision. It demands extreme patience, fine hand and tool coordination, and sharp eye detail. The artisans create these art pieces using wool, silk, or cotton and have been top choices for hand-weaving projects for years. Despite the availability of tools, the main process is carried out by hand, incorporating knotting and looping techniques, making each rug a beautiful and personal piece of traditional time and craftsmanship. It takes a few weeks to even months to finish an article, making handcrafted rugs an asset rather than a piece of furniture.
These rugs may also have mild imperfections compared to machine-woven ones, but that’s their beauty! Each rug becomes special because no two designs are similar, whereas you can get perfect uniformity with machine-made ones. But what’s the charm in something that everyone can grab? The uniqueness of each rug makes it all the more authentic and a pleasure to own and display.
Rug Craftsmanship: An Exclusive Artform
The most exquisite part of handcrafted rugs is their rich, centuries-old weaving legacy, blending cultural depth with artistic mastery. From the vibrant traditional and tribal patterns of various customs and ancestral ways of villages to the floral detailing and overall historical-inspired designs, each design speaks volumes of different regions, its heritage and civilization through colors, textures, and patterns. Moreover, some of the weaving traditions date back to the rich and creative legendary period.
Many of these custom handmade carpets are not just home décor but cultural heirlooms. They are woven by hand in small villages, often as a generational art form and legacy of the same family. They pass on every knot’s experience and uniqueness and loop over decades of inheritance.
At Ashary’s, we source from culturally rooted weaving hubs around the globe. Each design reflects the weaver’s environment, whether it’s the flowing rivers, floral gardens, blooming trees, ice capped mountains, or simple desert hues. In whatever way nature inspires the artisans, it is showcased in every hand-knotted rug. Overall, handmade rug specialists are spread all across the world and Ashary brings it all together under its roof.
