KASHI,
Hand Tufted Rugs are Program quality Tufteds woven by a ‘hand-tufting gun’ to
inject tufts of wool (usually) on to a large frame of cotton fabric, like
needle-point fabric or rug. Thus the knots are in “U” shape, which thereafter
are sealed by Latex backing. Further, another layer of cotton fabric is cladded
over the latex to give it’s final backing (seen by you). The weaving process
may take a fraction of time relative to Knotted rug weaving, and thus, the
costs of Tufteds are more economical for almost the same type of look as Hand
Knotteds. The plush pile of the hand-created patterns provide almost the same
beauty as hand knotted at a low price.
