CREATING A CUSTOM KAHHAL1871 PIECE
Design Development
The design journey begins with conversation. Our team translates your ideas, whether fully formed or tentatively sketched, into workable patterns that respect both your vision and the technical possibilities of our craft. We provide detailed renderings showing how patterns will interact with your space, how colors will read under different lighting conditions, how scale affects visual impact. Revisions are part of the process; we refine until the design feels inevitable.
Technique Selection
Each technique offers distinct possibilities. Hand-knotting provides unmatched durability and intricate detail, ideal for heirloom pieces and complex geometric patterns. Hand-tufting enables sculptural effects and faster production, perfect for contemporary designs requiring textural variation. Kilim weaving delivers lightweight versatility with crisp pattern definition. We guide you through these options, considering factors like intended use, aesthetic goals, and timeline. Often, the technique reveals itself through the design, certain patterns sing in flatweave, while others demand the depth only the hands can provide.
Color Mastery
Our dye masters work with both natural and synthetic dyes to achieve any color imaginable. Natural dyes offer unmatched depth and subtle variation, aging beautifully over time. Synthetic dyes provide consistency and access to contemporary colors impossible in nature. We can match Pantone references, work from fabric swatches, or develop custom colors through iterative sampling. Each project includes strike-offs, small woven samples, allowing you to see exact colors in your specific lighting before committing to full production.
Production Timeline
Bespoke rugs cannot be rushed. Our timelines begin after design approval and receipt of deposit. Rush production is occasionally possible for hand-tufted and kilim pieces. We provide regular progress updates, including photographs of your rug on the nol. Each piece ships with documentation detailing its creation, a record of the hands and hours invested in your vision.
