Story Behind the Art: Chainstitch flatweave rugs have their roots in Kashmir, India, where artisans have been creating them for centuries as part of the region’s rich textile traditions. Using a hooked needle called an “aari,” threads of wool are drawn through a burlap or cotton backing in a continuous chain of interlocking loops, producing a smooth, flat surface that resembles a tapestry. Unlike knotted rugs, these flatweaves sit close to the floor, offering a lighter profile while still allowing for extraordinary detail, color variation, and intricate motifs. The technique blends artistic expression with practical durability, resulting in rugs that are elegant, visually rich, and versatile, with a surface that is both resilient and graceful underfoot.
