Varanasi - Hand-knotted and beautifully luster washed of 100% semi-worsted New Zealand wool.

Considered one of the holiest pilgrimage cities in India, Varanasi has been a center of learning and civilization for over 2,000 years. Famous throughout the world for its silk weaving and cherished hand-crafted items, the cities' artisans draw their inspirations from the breathtaking temples that surround the region. Meticulously hand-knotted using a Persian Knot, the Varanasi Collection by Couristan has captured the classic design motifs which originated from this region of the world to create an area rug assortment that redefines handmade excellence. Each classic Persian design is beautifully composed on the collection's 100% Bikaner Indian wool pile. An array of richly stated hues are enhanced by a beautiful antique luster wash, providing Varanasi's lush pile with a velvety finish and a beautiful abrash appearance.
