Exlusive hand knotted silk carpet An exclusive hand-knotted carpet with silk or a pure silk carpet is a grandiose piece of art. These carpets are considered to be among the most beautiful and valuable carpets in the world. The carpets are created in workshops by skilled weavers who have mastered the techniques that have been perfected over generations. In some exclusive carpets silk is used to enhance details and provide an incredible splendour that almost brings the carpet to life. These carpets are extremely detailed, have a knot density of at least 500,000 knots/m2 and are made using only the finest and the best quality cork wool and natural silk. When it comes to the most exclusive carpets of all, silk is used in both warp, weft and pile allowing the weaver to create refined details and patterns, but it is an extremely difficult and lengthy process that requires a high level of concentration and skill. They are made using the highest quality silk available and with a knot density over one million. Silk carpets are predominantly made in Persian and Turkish workshops, but beautiful Indian Kashmir and Chinese silk carpets are also prime examples of this amazing art work. |
