Its combination of fineness and robustness is unbeaten among textile fibres. Even today, silk is an expression of high luxury. The caterpillar of the silk moth butterfly produces silk when building its cocoon. This natural silk is then elaborately extracted by hand and woven into fibres. Silk possesses an unmistakable shine that is noticeable from afar. Depending on the simplicity of the light, it varies into beautiful facets. At the same time, pure silk is extraordinarily soft, crease-resistant and heat-insulating.

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still form the highest quality standard among all types of rugs. Depending on the type of knot, the rugs are extremely robust and can last for generations. The finer and tighter a rug is knotted, the more detailed ornaments and patterns can be depicted on the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires a much higher manual effort as well as a higher level of experience and skill of the knotter. Thus the knot density also serves as a decisive value factor of hand-knotted rugs. The quality is not directly related to the knot density. A rather coarse rug may well have been made in excellent quality. less
