Dones Silk Oriental Indoor Rug

Hand-Tufted rugs are of new origins. While the hand-tufted rugs may look like hand-knotted ones, the process that creates them is totally different. Hand-Tufted rugs are created without using knots. Loops of yarns are pulled through a canvas that forms the rug foundation, using handheld equipment called the tufting gun. The canvas, stretched on a loom, has a design outline that must be filled in. Once complete and off the loom, the loops are cut to create a smooth pile and a second backing is attached to hold the yarns in place.
