Here’s a detailed description of a Hand Tufted Park – Sky Rug using New Zealand wool and an explanation of the difference between hand-tufted and handloom rugs:

Hand Tufted Park – Sky Rug

The Hand Tufted Park – Sky Rug is a luxurious and unique piece crafted from premium New Zealand wool. Known for its natural softness and durability, New Zealand wool is one of the finest fibers used in the creation of high-end rugs. It offers excellent resilience, making the rug feel plush underfoot while ensuring long-lasting quality.

Each rug is carefully handcrafted using a hand-tufting process. This technique involves using a tufting gun to insert yarn into a backing material, creating a thick, textured pile. The wool fibers used in this rug are spun and dyed to perfection, resulting in a rich, vibrant color palette. The Sky Rug features a blend of serene blues, grays, and whites, evoking a calming and contemporary atmosphere.

The New Zealand wool is naturally flame retardant, stain-resistant, and hypoallergenic, making this rug not only beautiful but practical as well. With its dense pile and soft texture, the Hand Tufted Park – Sky Rug brings comfort and elegance to any room, from living rooms to bedrooms or even office spaces.

Difference Between Hand Tufted and Handloom Rugs

While both hand-tufted and handloom rugs are meticulously made by hand, the construction techniques differ significantly:

Hand Tufted Rug:

• Technique: Hand-tufted rugs are made using a tufting gun, which punches the yarn into a backing material, creating loops or cuts. This process is faster compared to traditional weaving, making the rug more affordable.
• Pile: The pile of hand-tufted rugs is typically thicker and softer, as the yarn is inserted into the backing material in a loop or cut pile.
• Durability: These rugs are durable but may not last as long as handwoven rugs due to the construction process and backing materials used.
• Finish: A hand-tufted rug generally requires a latex backing to hold the tufts in place, giving it a softer, more flexible feel.
• Cost: Generally, hand-tufted rugs are more affordable than handloom rugs due to the quicker production time.

Handloom Rug:

• Technique: Handloom rugs are woven using traditional techniques on a loom, where threads are interlaced to create the rug. The weaver manually controls the loom, and the process is slower and more labor-intensive.
• Pile: Handloom rugs often have a flatter texture compared to hand-tufted rugs because they don’t use a tufting gun. The texture depends on the type of weave used (e.g., flatweave, kilim, or shaggy).
• Durability: Handloom rugs are known for their durability and longevity. The weaving process ensures the fibers are tightly woven, and they tend to hold their shape for many years.
• Finish: Handloom rugs are typically more robust and have a more even, consistent finish, as they are created by tightly interwoven yarns.
• Cost: Handloom rugs are generally more expensive than hand-tufted rugs because of the labor-intensive process and higher production time.

In summary:

• Hand Tufted Rugs are created using a tufting gun, making them softer, thicker, and less expensive, with a relatively faster production time.
• Handloom Rugs are woven by hand using a loom, resulting in a durable, high-quality finish that is more costly due to the traditional weaving process.
