About this Piece

Specially commissioned to the original size of a 19th Century carpet by master weaver, Hajji Jalili, which was unusual in total conception and one of the cultural treasures of persian manufacture.
Country of origin: Bhadohi, India
Knot Density: 256 knots per square inch
Materials: Pure silk pile woven on a cotton foundation
This carpet is in production. Due to the complexity of the hand-weaving process, it is expected to be ready April 2022.
Every rug design in the collection has a provenance researched from our archives which is hand woven in 100% organic silk onto a cotton yarn to a bespoke size by highly skilled weavers using knowledge passed on through generations. The family workshops in Uttar Pradesh, India have been personally visited by Robert and Henry Stamp of Brights of Nettlebed to ensure appropriate standards of human rights are respected and that the prices are extremely competitive. Only natural materials are used, which are stated on each rug along with the knots per inch and design origin.
