About the Item

This hand-knotted rug was made in India during the 1970s. It was dyed in a shade of earthy, natural brown, interspersed with beige. It is flat-woven from natural fiber from the jute plant. Jute is a renewable and biodegradable material, making it an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic fibers. It is often called "golden fiber" due to its shimmering, golden color. It is one of the oldest and most versatile natural fibers used in India. The tradition of jute rug weaving in India has a rich history, dating back hundreds of years. Weaving these rugs is rooted in traditional craft practices that have been passed down through generations. India is one of the world's leading producers of jute, and regions like West Bengal are particularly renowned for its cultivation and production. The production of jute rugs requires precision and skill. The process can be performed by hand or by simple, mechanical looms. Jute rug weaving begins with processing plant fibers, which are then spun into yarn. Various patterns and textures can be achieved by manipulating weaving techniques, allowing for the creation of both simple and more complex designs. Jute rugs can have a simple, natural texture or be adorned with traditional patterns that reflect local motifs and cultures. Jute weaving is an integral part of life in many regions of India. Artisans often draw inspiration from the surrounding nature and traditions, making each piece unique. Jute carpet weaving not only supports the local economy but also helps preserve and promote traditional craftsmanship. The rugs are valued for their simplicity, natural appearance, and durability. The tradition of jute rug weaving in India is a combination of centuries-old craftsmanship, environmental stewardship, and a rich culture that has stood the test of time and continues to play an important role in today's world. The rug is in original vintage condition. Before shipping, it will be professionally cleaned and ready for use.
