A distinctive feature of the handmade carpet is its somewhat uneven, asymmetrical pattern and equally uneven coloring. If the carpet is made by hand, this cannot be avoided: the peculiarity of natural dyes affects, and a person is not a loom, he does not always get everything clearly according to the ruler. But in machine manufacturing, aniline dyes are used, which are just able to give a uniform color over the entire surface of the carpet, but they fade very quickly and lose their brightness.
In some cases, when making a carpet by hand, the master uses an unpainted thread in the pattern. For this purpose, they take the highest quality wool, which has a bright natural color (red, black, white, etc
.). Such carpets are most attractive if they are woven from camel wool - the thread changes color at different angles of light.
Handmade carpets are made only from natural threads - cotton, silk, wool. Synthetics are never used for handmade carpets. Cotton is usually used to make the base of a carpet, but they are sometimes added when creating a pattern. The cotton carpet base is wear-resistant and stretches less compared to wool. If the base is made of wool, the carpet turns out to be more "moody", the threads stretch, which causes the pattern to deform. So wool is more widely used to create patterns.
Handmade silk carpets look very luxurious. They have a special manufacturing technique: special embroidery is applied to the silk base. Such a carpet turns out to be smooth, dense, with a slightly embossed pattern. Such carpets are highly appreciated, because they are much more difficult and take longer to make than fleecy ones.
Handmade Chinese carpets can be called a kind of classic of the genre, because China is the birthplace of silk.
These silk carpets usually depicted plot scenes: hunting, mythical scenes with dragons, and social life. Such carpets were distinguished by special tones of colors - the peculiarities of vegetable dyes in the area affected.
Indian handmade carpets already have several different motifs of patterns. This is nature, flowers, flora. However, there are also hunting plots, like those of the Chinese, only here the natural landscapes are described in more detail. Kashmiri silk carpets are especially appreciated - Kashmir has been one of the main silk carpet manufacturing regions in India since ancient times.
