20 Indian Carpets And Rugs
Carpets made by native Indians from wool, with silk inserted at times. Woven on native looms and entirely by hand. The colour and design are all in the weft. Colours are inserted as required by the design from bobbins, and in the form of small tufts. They are very expensive. The designs are chiefly floral in more or less natural form. There are large dead spaces of plain colour and the wool pile is dull and lustreless. They are hard wearing.Dictionary of the English textile terms > Indian Carpets And Rugs
