When exploring persian cotton rugs, it is essential to understand both the construction and the application. Persian rug designs are the gold standard of the carpet world — central medallions framed by intricate floral borders, all-over botanical fields, hunting scenes, gardens, and stylised geometric vase patterns. Our Persian-style collection is hand-knotted in Bhadohi using the same Senneh and Ghiordes knot techniques that have produced the great Iranian carpets for centuries.
Coupled with this, cotton rugs and dhurries are lightweight, breathable and remarkably easy to live with. Because cotton is washable and naturally hypoallergenic, our cotton collection is a favourite for bedrooms, nurseries, kids' rooms and casual dining areas. Each piece is flatwoven by hand on traditional pit looms — there is no glue, no synthetic backing, just yarn and weave.

Persian designs typically feature central medallions and stylised floral fields. Mughal designs (developed in 16th-century India) emphasise naturalistic gardens, prayer arches and dense floral repeats. We weave both.
Small cotton dhurries (up to 3x5 ft) can usually be machine-washed on a cold gentle cycle. Larger pieces should be dry-cleaned or spot-cleaned to preserve shape and colour.
Cotton flatweaves are durable for low-to-medium traffic areas. For hallways and heavily used rooms, we recommend wool or jute instead.
