Introducing the "Soft Melody" rug, an exquisite piece from our collection. This rug originates from India, specifically the region surrounding the city of Agra. It embodies a transitional design with a betil pattern, featuring a captivating combination of blue background and a brown border.
Crafted with precision and artistry, this rug showcases a meticulous blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and innovation. It is primarily made from a luxurious blend of imported, long-staple New Zealand wool, comprising 50-75% of the material, along with superior local wool or South African wool. This unique composition results in a lustrous finish that sets it apart from rugs made solely from local wools.
Noteworthy is the yarn used in the creation of the Soft Melody rug. Unlike common two-ply yarns, each knot incorporates a single thread, contributing to a denser and heavier yarn. The use of an asymmetrical Persian-type knot further enhances the rug's texture, giving it a distinct tactile and visual appeal with visibly pronounced knots.
The Soft Melody rug boasts a density of 6x6, reflecting the intricate craftsmanship involved in its creation. This density contributes to the rug's durability and clarity of design.
Constructed with a 100% wool pile and cotton foundations, this rug is also double-wefted in most areas. Its pile height measures approximately 3/8 inch, providing a comfortable and luxurious feel. Due to the handspun nature of the yarn, subtle color variations enhance each rug, reflecting the artisanal dyeing techniques employed during production.
To ensure long-lasting vibrancy, the Soft Melody rug utilizes chromium dyes, known for their fade-resistant properties. These high-quality dyes, primarily imported from Switzerland, are applied to the wool in India, combining international and local resources to create a rug that maintains its vibrant hues over time.
With its exceptional craftsmanship, lavish materials, and captivating design, the Soft Melody rug is a testament to the cultural heritage and dedication to quality found in Indian rug production.
