Chainstitch antique rugs and carpets

Antique Chainstitch rugs reflect the breadth of Indian weaving beyond the knotted pile carpet. closely worked chain stitches create flat, textile-like surfaces related to the country’s long traditions of Dhurries and other flatweaves, allowing floral drawing and fine detail to remain exceptionally clear.

these handcrafted textiles carry an indigenous technique with a deep history in the region. their combination of ornament, low profile and material texture allows Chainstitch rugs to move comfortably between contemporary and traditional interiors.
