Rugs

Chain Stitch Rugs

"Gabhas” as they are locally known, are hand crafted in Kashmir. These superb rugs have been in continuous production since the days of the Mogul dynasties. Overall, they closely resemble the finest hand tied Persian rugs but are far less expensive. The very sharp detail of the beautiful designs is accomplished by a hook needle applying fine worstered two-ply wool over a durable heavy cotton/canvas backing the same color as the rug's background. Breathtaking designs range from traditional Persian to contemporary floral patterns in a wide range of colours.
