Authentic Origin
Bhadohi Loom Certified
Artisanal Integrity
“A true handmade rug cannot be hurried. It is the rhythmic dialogue between handspun wool, patient loom tension, and generations of hereditary memory.”
In an era dominated by synthetic machine tufting and disposable floor coverings, Ocean Art Collection preserves the tactile weight of pure natural fibers. Every piece is knotted or flatwoven by hand in Bhadohi, honoring techniques refined over centuries.

Core Disciplines
Master Weaving Lineages
Four distinct weaving traditions cultivated in our Bhadohi atelier, alongside bespoke trade commissions.
Discipline 01
Tibetan Weave Rugs
Formed by looping continuous yarn across a metal rod before shearing, Tibetan cross-knotting delivers unmatched density, soft tactile cushion, and striking modern linear clarity. Ideal for executive suites, master bedrooms, and modern luxury architecture.
Knot Count:60 to 120 Knots / sq. in.
Fiber Blend:New Zealand Wool & Indian Wool
Pile Height:10mm – 16mm Plush
Discipline 02
Heirloom Hand-Knotted Carpets
Every single knot is individually tied by hand around adjacent warp threads. A single 9×12 foot carpet contains over one million discrete knots, taking a master team three to five months of dedicated loom work. These are rugs crafted to endure for generations.
Weaving Technique:Asymmetrical Persian Knot
Knot Density:80 to 200+ Knots / sq. in.
Longevity:Heirloom (50+ Years)
Discipline 03
Dhurrie Flatweaves
Tight, pileless flatweaves struck by hand using heavy iron panja claws. Fully reversible, breathable, and exceptionally resilient. Our dhurries celebrate pure geometric discipline, ideal for coastal living, boutique hotel guest rooms, and layered interior aesthetics.
Construction:Panja Loom Flatweave
Versatility:100% Reversible
Lead Time:3 to 4 Weeks
Discipline 04
Handloom & Pitloom Rugs
Crafted on pedal-operated frame and pit looms. Combining cut and loop textures, subtle organic abrash color striations, and tactile high-low surface architecture favored by contemporary architects and Japandi minimalist spaces.
Loom Type:Shuttle Pit-Loom
Surface Style:Cut & Loop Ribbed Texture
Production Pace:Efficient 4–6 Week Cycles
Material Provenance
Pure Natural Fibers, Zero Synthetics
A rug is only as noble as the fiber from which it is spun. We strictly curate natural fibers, avoiding synthetic adhesives, petro-chemical backings, and plastic yarns.
Fiber 01
New Zealand Wool
Long-staple wool celebrated for its natural spring crimp, stain resilience, and low-sheen organic luster. Provides exceptional pile bounce under heavy traffic.
Used in: Tibetan Weaves & Fine Knots
Fiber 02
Mountain Bikaner Wool
Indigenous Indian sheep wool renowned for its heavy lanolin content and rugged tensile strength. Yields the authentic rustic drape of traditional flatweaves.
Used in: Dhurries & Loom Flatweaves
Fiber 03
Ganges Golden Jute
Sustainably harvested plant fiber known as the "golden fiber." Naturally anti-static, completely biodegradable, and hand-braided into thick earthy floor coverings.
Used in: Organic Natural Jute Rugs
Fiber 04
Small-Batch Pot Dyeing
Yarns are dyed in open copper vats by master dyers using Swiss chrome and botanical extracts, creating subtle abrash shading that authenticates hand craftsmanship.
Matching: Pantone TPX & ARS Wool

Manufacturing & Trade Knowledge
Frequently Asked Trade Questions
Clear manufacturing specifications, trade terms, and logistics for international architects, interior designers, and wholesale importers.
What is Ocean Art Collection's rug manufacturing lineage? ▾
Established in 1995 in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh (India's historic carpet weaving capital), Ocean Art Collection operates vertical looms producing authentic Tibetan rod-loop weaves, heirloom hand-knotted carpets, panja flatweave dhurries, and handloom textiles for luxury interior designers and commercial trade buyers worldwide.
What are the minimum order quantities (MOQ) for US and international trade buyers? ▾
We support both high-volume wholesale production and bespoke hospitality commissions. For custom interior design projects, our minimum order quantity is a single room-sized rug (1 piece). For commercial trade programs and retail collections, custom MOQ tiers begin at 5 to 20 pieces per design.
Can rugs be manufactured to custom dimensions and oversized floor plans? ▾
Yes. Our master loom facilities can weave seamless oversized rugs up to 20 feet wide by 35 feet long (6m × 10.6m). We also execute custom architectural shapes, stair runners, L-shaped sectional layouts, and wall-to-wall trade specifications.
What is the timeline for custom yarn strike-offs and full production? ▾
Physical yarn lab-dip and strike-off corner samples (typically 1.5×1.5 ft) are woven and air-shipped to your US studio in 12 to 16 business days. Full production typically takes 6 to 10 weeks for flatweaves and handloom rugs, and 12 to 20 weeks for high-density hand-knotted heirloom carpets.
How are international shipments handled for US clients? ▾
We handle complete export customs documentation, fumigation certification, and door-to-door delivery. Time-sensitive samples and rugs are dispatched via DHL Express and FedEx Freight Air Cargo (4 to 7 business days transit to any US address). High-volume container orders are shipped FOB/CIF via sea freight.
What materials and environmental standards do you observe? ▾
We work exclusively with renewable natural fibers: 100% long-staple New Zealand wool, indigenous Indian Bikaner mountain wool, raw tussar silk, and natural Bengal jute. All yarns are pot-dyed with Azo-free Swiss chrome dyes and botanical extracts. Our rugs are 100% woven without chemical synthetic latex or synthetic adhesive backings.
