On vertical warp threads, weavers employ a traditional Tibetan knotting method, row by row. There is no extra backing or adhesive employed.
They use premium sheep’s wool, which is frequently blended with silk to give it a smooth, glossy appearance, as well as natural linen wool blends.
These rugs are long-term investments that survive for decades since each knot is firmly tied by hand.
Knots per square inch (KPSI) is used to quantify quality. More knots result in patterns that are sharper and more intricate.
