The style of the design can range in look and feel. You can make a traditional type of rug to something much more modern. You can create anything in between as well.

The sky is limit!

Paying Attention To Detail Of The Custom Project

We review and inspect everything throughout the process. We ensure the material and the workmanship are the best in the industry. Each project is a unique design. So the length of time to complete the work varies.

People don’t expect a bespoke rug project to be as easy as we make it. We begin with photographs or artwork supplied by the client for the design.

What affects the time it takes to make a custom rug?

Things that affect the weaving time most are:

• The rug size.
• Complexity of the design.
• The number of colors.
• The quality and how fine the weave is.

*Some other materials may be an option as well. Examples are: linen, sisal, bamboo silk, banana silk, or viscose.

Once the material has been selected, choosing the colors in next

Each color is selected to match the desired colors the client prefers. During the design process, clients can work through the designers or through us.

Some clients prefer to allow the rug weavers to work on their own. This is another option as well.

Selecting The Rug Shape And Size

Customer must choose the shape and size of their custom piece.

Possible options include:

Traditional shapes like square, oval, round, or a runner. That said, we can produce custom shapes as well. Customers can create any out-of-the-box shape or size they wish.

You Can Be A Rug Designer

One of the most beautiful forms of art in the world is a breathtaking carpet. This is one of the most impactful of your home decor. Rugs and carpets dictate a lot of what is going to work in your decor.

For centuries, people have designed and woven stunning textiles. They did so to decorate palaces, temples and homes. In the past, artists needed to train for years. Only then they could create and custom design that is “perfect”.

With current technology and a guiding hand it became much simpler. Anyone can design a unique, custom, one-of-a-kind area rug these days. They are able to do based on the exact details they want. In just a few steps, you can be your own custom or bespoke rug designer.

Then you realized you like something that has some age. You want character. So you expanded your quest to include vintage and antique rugs. But nothing affordable is a perfect match for what you wanted. Those that are, are fabulously expensive.

That is where Nazmiyal comes in. We have opened up a new division to handle custom making bespoke rugs.

The Process Of Custom Making Rugs:

As noted, you do not to be in NYC to create your area rugs.

A general outline of the steps that we will take as we create your rug:

• We start by talking over the specific needs and wants.
• We settle on a specific design.
• We pick the specific colors and texture.
• We create a Photoshop rendering to give a main idea of the look.
• Once approved, we send the rendering to our weavers. This includes the colors and texture.
• The weavers create a small strike off (around 2 feet by 3 feet). We send it to you to review and approve.
• One you reviewed the strike off, you may request changes. We send the changes to the weavers. They will then create a second sample based on your feedback.
• Next you approve the strike off. Then we give the green light to the weavers. They will first curate the materials, dye all the yarns build the loom. Next they will begin to weave your rug.
• Once the weaving of your rug is complete:
  • The rug will come off the loom.
  • It is then sheared.
  • Then they washed and clean it.
  • Then they take care of all the finishing touches.
• They ship you newly woven bespoke rug to us. We clear it from customs and receive it.
• Next we get it to you. You lay your new bespoke rug down in the room and enjoy it.

As a side note, we offer free shipping on most customized area rugs.

Your Own Personal Treasure

Designing your own carpet gives you the ultimate conversation piece. When someone asks you who designed your rug, you can tell them that you did!

Why go custom?

Some reasons are:

• You have an odd shaped corner or nook and can’t find just the right size and shape rug.
• You have a perfect pattern and color in mind but can’t find a pre-made piece.
• You want the assurance that everything will come out just right.
• You want a woven piece using the best quality materials.
• You want to create something yourself that will last for generations to come.

Shop Our Entire Collection Of:

• Vintage Moroccan Rugs
• Berber Carpets and Rugs From Morocco

Are you considering purchasing a vintage Moroccan rug or carpet? Are you having difficulty locating a piece that’s large enough for your space? We get this question a lot. Why? The original rugs from Morocco weren’t woven wider than 6 or 7 feet.

We have developed a method of joining two or more rugs to create large sizes. This is a process that is well-suited to Moroccan rugs.

Create Your Own Unique Custom Made Moroccan Rugs

Moroccan rugs are among the most beautiful and most used type of vintage rug. They lack asymmetry and have unique elements. These folk art rugs are distinct from other styles. That is why customers can create custom size rugs from two or more, separate rugs.

Moroccan rugs are abstract in design (more so in the Beni Ourain rugs). They feature non-repeating patterns of tribal elements and color. This makes them ideal for combining to create one unique rug.

* Vintage Moroccan rugs use brighter colors and abstract patterns. Combining them creates beautiful custom-made rugs. These rugs are perfect for a modern home.

* Bright colors and contrasting patterns mix well in this custom Moroccan rug.

See this example of custom-made Moroccan rugs:

The two vintage rugs pictured below are 3′ 1″ x 6′ 2″ and 3′ 2″ x 7′ 6″. A client selected these two rugs and made one 6′ x 6′ 2″ size in the end. When joining two or more Moroccan rugs, some alterations needed. We do this to create one coherent rug.

You will notice that the longer rug reduced in size a bit. We did this so that the end-product wouldn’t be misshapen and irregular. All the while, the aesthetics of the longer piece remain intact. The result is attributed to careful and professional work.

* Colorful lines match the colored checkers of the other rug.

More Custom Made Moroccan Rugs:

The two Moroccan rugs pictured below are 3′ 10″ x 3′ 10″ and 4′ 3″ x 6′ 2″. A client chose these two to joined and crate a bigger one. The newly created rug was 3′ 10″ x 10′ in the end.

The end result is something distinctive. It incorporates the finest elements of both pieces. These two colorful rugs were beautiful on their own. But once joined, they make something that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Custom Tiger Design Rug Samples Design Elements

The tiger design has been used for hundreds of years throughout Asia. You see them most in China, Nepal, Tibet, Korea, India and Malaysia. These designs express the elegance of the animal. They show the threat of danger and the symbolism of power, strength and respect.

Tawny browns and light tans blend to show the variations of the tiger’s coat. Pure white contrasts with the black stripes and golden hues of the coat. The fine knotting and short pile simulate the dense, thick, shiny fur. It feels like the sleek look of this kingly cat. The rendering of the stripes creates a minimalist feel. It complements decor ranging from modern to traditional.

Materials and Knotting Of Custom Area Rugs

The quality and type of materials affect the appearance. The type of knotting, knot count and kind of yarn contribute to the beauty and look. Our hand-knotted tiger rugs use age-old techniques with a high knot count. This creates a soft pile that works well here.

Nepalese wool is some of the finest in the world. Sheep in the Himalayas give thick, resilient, lanolin-rich wool. The wool is hand-spun and dyed using plant-based dyes. Hand-spun wool has more variation in strand thickness. This affects how it absorbs dyes. This creates subtle variations of color in response to light. Because wool yarn is thicker than silk, wool rugs have lower KPSI than silk carpets. The use of 100% wool gives a dense and coarse look. Wool is washable, durable and holds color well.

Silk rugs are the most luxurious rugs in the world. Silk yarns are thinner than wool, allowing a finer weave. Silk absorbs dyes in a more even fashion. It creates a rich sheen and luminous pile. These qualities give an elegant look to these Nepal rugs. Highlighting the shine and thick nap that emulate the texture of a tiger’s coat.

Combining wool and silk creates a beautiful gloss. It accentuates the subtle variations in pile thickness and texture. The silk captures the sleek look. The wool gives a realistic look of a woolly coat of fur. The combination of two is quite beautiful.

Nepalese rug weavers have adapted their weaving traditions. They create modern designs that suit current styles. We are proud to offer this rug in a minimalist tiger motif. You can order it in wool, silk and a combination of silk and wool.
