Specifications
Passages Handtufted Rug - Black / Grey carpet from India.
Handtufted carpets are made by hand using high quality raw materials, but rather than having knots that need to be tied, a special ”tufting gun” is used to push loops of yarn through a scrim (pre-woven backing). The last stage in the production is trimming the pile to the desired length, thereby exposing the thread ends for a softer pile.
This technique allows for a quick and effective process and gives the weaver more freedom and range to create detailed patterns and shapes otherwise restricted in handknotted carpets. The end result is a long lasting high quality carpet at an affordable price.
Durable Wool 
Wool is a natural textile fibre and one of the most sought after materials for rug making. Wool rugs are highly durable and perfectly capable of resisting wear and tear of every day use. Wool has a naturally dirt-repelling effect and is easy to keep clean. It is also flame resistant and characteristically retains it’s shape so that the pile of the rug always rises.
Care & Fair
We are proud to be part of the organization CARE & FAIR. Their mission is to improve the living conditions of carpet weavers in India and their families through education and health

CarpetVista review
Excellent company with beautiful rugs. I have bought several over the years and never been disappointed. But the delivery service was not up to scratch - not entirely Carpet Vista's fault perhaps, but it lost them a star because my query did not elicit a helpful response.

Beautiful rug. Fantastic service
Absolutely delighted with my new rug. From start to finish the service I received from Carpetvista was so professional and efficient. The Rug I received was exactly the same as advertised on the site and the delivery service was fast and efficient.

Warm recommendation
I ordered four different carpets. All of them are very beautiful and good quality. Love them. The colours are bright and the carpets were clean and nice. All I needed to do was to roll them out. Good value for money.

Buy with confidence......
This is the second beautiful rug I have bought from RugVista. The choice is outstanding. The colours are true to reality which is important when buying an expensive item on line. I ordered on Saturday and the rug is in situ on Thursday! The rug is beyond beautiful and once again, you have a beyond happy customer. Thank you!

The colors in the carpet will be perceived differently depending on the angle you view it from.
