Jaipur Rugs carpets

NK Chaudharye had an idea that led to the creation of the Jaipur Rugs company in 1978. It all started in a small workshop with 2 looms and 9 artisans, but now, it is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of handmade carpets.
Bredaquaranta has brought a 2500-year-old weaving tradition to Milan by becoming an authorized Jaipur Rugs dealer.

Jaipur rugs are ideal for people seeking a product that demonstrates excellence, attention to sustainability, and design. The wool is carefully selected and each thread is knotted by hand, row after row, according to the traditional process that weavers have been following for over two thousand years. The more knots there are in a square centimetre, the more time it took to make the rug, and therefore the more valuable it is.

Each carpet is different from all the others: the technique used to make a carpet affects its quality, aesthetics and durability.
Hand-knotted rugs take a minimum of 2 months to make and can take up to a year, if the rug is large. This type of carpet is the most durable, due to the method and care with which it is made, and for this reason it is ideal for areas high-traffic areas.

Hand-tufted rugs are made with a weaving method in which the design is placed on a canvas, and then transferred with a special gun that hooks and pulls the thread to form an embroidered pattern. This type of carpet is the softest and most delicate, which is why it is suitable for areas such as the bedroom, where it can last up to 10 years.

Rugs made on a loom can produce a final effect that looks very similar to a hand-knotted rug. The design looks like a painting because the pile is cut at different heights, and this gives it a unique chromatic effect as well as particular softness.

Flatweave rugs are made of cotton or wool, and the weave is very similar to that used to make fabric for clothing. Depending on the design and pattern you want to create, the threads are knotted differently. The materials used and the type of weave make them the most durable carpets ever, so much so that they can also be used outdoors. Since they are also the quickest to make, these carpets come in many colours and patterns, which are in the catalogue.

The founder of Jaipur Rugs is also called the "Gandhi of the textile industry" for combining corporate and social interest to create a new business model based on values such as dignity, empathy, and respect. This has made it possible to disrupt old customs by encouraging women, artists and poor people to enter the company. Today, NK Chaudharye is celebrated as an example of how profit and kindness can coexist to grow a company. Another aspect that company cares about is sustainability. In fact, they intend to create value for both the environment and people: thanks to the Jaipur Rugs Foundation, communities in the most rural areas of India have been provided with health care, education, training and financial inclusion. Moreover, the use of recycled yarns and non-polluting dyes has made it possible to reduce the impact on the environment to adapt to the most stringent global standards.
