FLATWEAVE

Bhadohi Rug Gallery

Flatweave describes a rug that is WOVEN on a loom rather than knotting (one knot at a time). It is created by interlocking warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) threads. 

Flat weave rugs are exactly as their name suggests, woven flat resulting in a thin profile and no pile. Also known as dhurrie or kilim rugs.Flat-Weaves often featuring a repeating and reversible pattern giving you twice the wear!

How Are Flatweave Rugs Made

A flatweave rug is created using a weaving technique which involves the weaving of wool (or the chosen material) around warp thread pairs. When finished, these fibres create the entirety of the rug’s surface. The backing is created by weaving threads on a loom, meaning the pattern is usually reversible on each side, much unlike the usual backing or pile you would find on other rugs. The true definition of a flatweave rug is a rug that is made without using any knots in the process.

Flatweave rugs are soft, lightweight (As flatweave rugs don’t have a pile, they usually have less material overall and are therefore considered one of the lightest types of rug), durable,easy to clean and cost-effective.
