Traditional Rugs hold a special place in the pantheon of domestic mattresses. They embody a tradition, one which may be nonexistent now but definitely is embedded in the memory of those who love to know what the past was like. Hence their weaving is also done accordingly.
Traditional Rugs can be hand knotted, flatly woven, hand tufted or machine made. It is predominantly observed that the design in flat woven traditional rugs is brought out by the base of the mattress instead of the pile or perhaps the long piece of flowing material. The pattern is created by forcefully intertwining the weft with the warp.
Hand Tufted Traditional Rugs are woven with the help of hand-used tools that weave pieces of wool into a canvas spread stretched over a frame. The canvas contains the design of the carpet the rug maker fills coloured wool with. The frame is taken off once the mattress is comprehensively piled up. A noticeable feature in a hand woven traditional carpet is that unlike a hand tufted rug, the fringe is the corner of the warp strings which goes from end to end on the mattress.
There are other traditional mattresses woven from several natural fibres such as wool, cotton, silk and synthetics such as nylon and polypropylene. Most of these are chosen depending on the culture being depicted on the mattress. The cultures vary from Asian, South Asian, Eastern European, Western European, African and Scandinavian. Besides, quite often historical figures find a way in these carpets because of which they are accordingly adjusted for.
Is the thought itself not just great, that you will have an entire tradition being laid down on the floor of your home? An elegantly woven, embroidered, dry cleaned and fitting traditional mattress all set to spruce up the decor at home. They say when you bring an entire tradition at home visitors cannot help but marvel at the enigma they get to witness in first person.
Given that these pieces are woven with some of the best fabrics available for purchase in the market, their wager only goes up making them such coveted pieces everyone should get a hold at. As mentioned, an entire tradition unfolds inside your abode.
