Handmade Silk Rugs
Very few traditional weaving families with the required knowledge and skill remain, meaning sourcing rugs of this quality can be extremely difficult and for the majority, not viable. However, we believe in supporting the traditions and making the additional effort to present unrivalled products to our clients. The families have been personally visited by Brights of Nettlebed's chairman and director, Robert and Henry Stamp to ensure the quality of materials and manufacture, appropriate human rights are adhered to and that the community is supported. Our direct relationship with the weavers also enables us to instruct special commissions meaning bespoke rugs can be designed and made to any size on request. At the quality we instruct, it takes one weaver approximately 5 weeks to hand knot one square metre.
