Introducing the "Soft Melody" collection, this rug originates from India, specifically in and around the city of Agra. Handwoven by artisans in their homes, these rugs embrace traditional practices that have been perfected over centuries.

With a luxurious blend of imported, long-staple New Zealand wool (50-75% of the blend) and either superior local wool or South African wool, the Soft Melody rug boasts a shiny and lustrous finish. The imported New Zealand wool is carefully hand-carded and hand-spun into yarn in the regions surrounding Agra, supporting the local economy.

What sets these rugs apart is the unique single-ply characteristic of the yarn. Unlike more common two-ply yarns, each knot of a Soft Melody rug incorporates a single thread, resulting in a thicker and denser yarn. This, along with the use of an asymmetrical Persian-type knot, contributes to a nubbier texture with pronounced knots, giving the rug a distinct tactile and visual appeal.

Renowned for their 6x6 quality, these rugs showcase intricate craftsmanship, ensuring robustness and design clarity. They feature a 100% wool pile and are constructed with cotton foundations, tightly spun cotton warps, and are mostly double-wefted. The pile height measures approximately 3/8 inch. The handspun nature of the yarn creates subtle color variations, enhancing each rug with a unique aesthetic achieved through artisanal dyeing techniques.

Coloration plays a crucial role in the longevity of these rugs. Chromium (or chrome) dyes are employed, providing resistance to fading and ensuring vibrant hues that endure over time. Unlike rugs with inferior synthetic dyes, the Soft Melody rugs employ high-quality chromium dyes, primarily imported from Switzerland, combining international and local resources for exceptional colorfastness.
