The Beauty of Hand Tufted
Hand-tufted rugs marry hand and machine processes. In hand-tufting, the yarn is punched through a pre-woven backing with a specialized tufting gun. The lofty construction features precise designs, often has a plush pile, and can be made of wool, viscose, or PET fibers. Tufted rugs can either be looped or cut pile, or a combination of the two. A cotton-latex backing is glued on to hold the knots in place, offering strength and rigidity to the rug. We love the painterly and handmade effects this construction can bring!
