Indian dhurrie is the workshop discipline that sits closest to the Indian house. The form was woven for floors, walls, takhats and palanquins, and its geometry was tuned to the shapes of the household rather than to the formal medallion grammar of the imported Persian rug.
The work took around three weeks on a horizontal loom under Two. The yarn was prepared in small dye batches and packed weft by weft against a cotton warp. There is no knot and no pile; the design is built into the weft and the rug carries the same image on both faces. The flat structure makes the piece fully reversible across its working life.
The composition
Built around a red register. The composition is the result of a slow studio process; the cartoon was charted at scale, the dye batches were proofed against each other, and the colour relationships were settled before any wool reached the warp. The result is a single still image at room scale rather than a tiled repeat that fills a floor. The slight tonal drift across the field is the trace of small-batch dyeing in copper vats; from any standing distance it gathers into a single colour.
The piece in a room
4' x 6' works as a punctuation rug. Place it beside a bed, under a corner armchair, or in front of an entry door, where its geometry registers on the body before it registers on the eye. The colour holds at close range and across distance; the wool carries enough body that the piece feels warm underfoot in any season.
Care
Routine care: vacuum once a week on the lowest suction setting. Reverse the piece end for end at the spring and autumn change so both faces share the wear evenly. Address spills with cold water on a clean cloth, working from the perimeter inward. Have the rug professionally dry-cleaned every three to four years to refresh the colour and clear any trapped dust from the weft.

Day-to-day care
- Vacuum gently once a week without a rotating brush bar — use the suction-only setting on hand-knotted or hand-tufted pieces.
- Rotate the rug 180° every 3-6 months so foot traffic and sunlight wear is even.
- Use a quality rug pad underneath for slip resistance and to extend life.
- Blot fresh spills immediately with a clean white cloth — do not rub. Work from the edge of the spill inward.
Deep cleaning
- Professional dry-cleaning is recommended every 12-24 months for hand-knotted carpets.
- Avoid steam cleaners and hot water on natural-fibre rugs (wool, silk, jute) — they can cause shrinkage and dye bleeding.
- For washable flat-weaves and cotton dhurries, machine-wash on a gentle cold cycle in a mesh bag.
Storage
- Roll (do not fold) the carpet around a clean cardboard tube, pile-side in.
- Wrap in breathable cotton sheeting (not plastic) and store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space.
- Use moth-protection sachets if storing wool for more than a season.

Frequently asked
How long will shipping take?
Free standard delivery across mainland UK is 3–5 working days. Highlands & Islands, Northern Ireland and remote postcodes typically take 5–7 working days. We’ll email a tracking link as soon as your order is dispatched.
Will the colour exactly match the photo?
Each rug is hand-crafted with natural-dye yarns, so a small variation in shade, pattern density, and tone is expected and is part of the authenticity of a handmade piece. Colours on screen also vary by monitor and lighting. If you are matching a specific decor, request a yarn sample before ordering.
Can I get a sample before buying?
Yes — we send 2-3 small yarn / pile samples for £25 (refundable against your purchase). Message us on WhatsApp or email us with the SKU and your delivery postcode to arrange a sample.

Do you take custom orders?
Yes. Custom-size, custom-colour, and custom-design hand-knotted rugs typically take 8–14 weeks depending on size and complexity (production plus shipping to the UK). Minimum custom-order size is 4'×6'. Send us your brief on WhatsApp with the room photo and dimensions for a quote.
