IAnD Exclusive

This festive
season, adorn your floor with a glamorous, colourful rug or let it speak the
tradition of the Indian dhurrie...
Rugs and dhurries are undoubted show-stoppers and can grab eye-balls like
perhaps no other element of décor! Lounge or bedside, library or baithak (living area), the allure of
sinking your bare feet into the warmth and gentleness underfoot becomes the
added incentive to the attractive add-on that wholesomely contributes to your décor with that extra touch of texture or colour or both!
Traditional weaves vs. modern
stripes, splashes of colour and geometrics; shaggy piles, woven rugs, braided
rugs, hooked rugs; you can experiment generously with them to make your room
more sophisticated.
A word of caution: Make sure you
protect your exquisite rugs from excessive sunlight, moth, stains and spills.
And remember, dhurries stay fresh only if kept wrapped in soft muslin
cloth and away from potted plants!
