Kashmir carpet. approx. 63cm x 92cm. silk

This is a hand-woven silk carpet woven in the Kashmir region. which lies near the border between northern India and northeastern Pakistan.

While the Persian hand-woven silk carpets have bright. vivid colors. the Kashmiri hand-woven silk carpets have an overall yellowish hue. giving them a warm. calm. vintage-like feel.

The beautiful and elegant luster of silk brings out the patterns and colors. and it has an enchantingly smooth feel.

Weaving methods vary depending on the region and material. but the main feature of hand-woven carpets is the technique of tying the weft threads to the warp threads.
