RUG HISTORY

The craft of carpet making arrived in this region during the 16th century, under Mughal rule. It is believed that master weavers from Persia travelled to India, bringing with them intricate hand-knotting techniques, floral motifs and geometric designs.
Over time, local artisans in the Varanasi region learned these advanced knotting methods and made them their own. They began combining Persian techniques with traditional Indian patterns and natural materials such as wool, cotton and silk.
During the British colonial period, carpet production grew beyond royal and courtly floor coverings. The region became known for its beautifully woven flatweave dhurries and export-quality rugs, helping Varanasi and the surrounding areas develop a strong reputation for carpet making.
By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, European traders had begun taking notice of the skilled artisans in the Varanasi-Bhadohi region. What began as a local craft gradually grew into an important part of South Asia's rug-exporting industry.
Today, local artisans continue to practise traditional hand-knotting and hand-tufting techniques. Each rug is made by hand, and depending on its size, design and level of detail, a single high-quality rug can take anywhere from several weeks to many months to complete.
The region went on to produce a large share of India's handmade carpets, which became appreciated by interior designers around the world for their durability, craftsmanship and detailed artistry.
And even today, that tradition continues. Behind every handmade rug is not just a design, but generations of skill, patience and craftsmanship passed down through time.
