About this product
A dhurrie (also dhurri, durrie, durry or dari) is an Indian and Pakistani term for a handwoven rug or a thin flat carpet, an item of home furnishing. The dhurries have unique designs inspired by the state of origin such as multicolor stripes, one of the most popular patterns. Dhurrie weaving was a big industry in rural India.[1][2][3] Dhurries are used traditionally in South Asia as floor-coverings.
The concept of dhurrie is a little bit different from a rug or carpet, because they are used for bedding or packaging, not only as a floor covering. But since the dhurries serve the same purpose as carpet or rugs they can be described as one.
Dhurries are made from four types of materials: cotton, wool, jute, and silk, as well as in variety of combination of all these materials. This material is first converted into thread and then woven into dhurries.
