Jaipur, India · Established 2004
Planet Arts manufactures handmade rugs in Jaipur, India — hand-knotted, hand-tufted, handwoven and flatweave constructions in wool, jute, cotton and hemp, produced for wholesale, hospitality and custom private-label buyers worldwide.
Hand-knotting in progress — Jaipur workshop
Planet Arts is a handmade rug manufacturer based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, established in 2004. The company produces hand-knotted, hand-tufted, handwoven and flatweave rugs in wool, jute, cotton, hemp and blended natural fibers, working directly with importers, wholesalers, interior designers, architects and hospitality buyers.
Manufacturing takes place across established constructions and material combinations, with custom development available for buyers who need specific dimensions, colorways or design interpretations. Planet Arts operates as a CEPC-affiliated exporter, supplying finished rugs to markets including the United States, United Kingdom, UAE and Europe.
The sections below cover rug constructions, materials, custom manufacturing, wholesale sourcing, and the practical process of working with an Indian rug manufacturer directly.
Constructions
Planet Arts manufactures across four primary hand-construction methods, each suited to different design outcomes, budgets and applications.
Individual knots tied by hand around warp threads, producing dense, durable rugs capable of fine pattern detail and long wear life. The slowest construction to produce and typically the highest in structural quality.
View hand-knotted rugsYarn punched through a fabric backing using a tufting gun, then sheared and finished by hand. Faster to produce than hand-knotting, well suited to bold pattern work and custom colorways at moderate cost.
View hand-tufted rugsConstructed on a loom by interlacing weft and warp yarns by hand. Includes flatweave and pile variations, generally producing a flatter, more textural surface than knotted or tufted rugs.
View handwoven rugsA pile-free weave producing a thin, reversible rug. Common in wool and cotton, well suited to layered interiors, high-traffic commercial spaces and buyers seeking a lighter-weight product for shipping.
View flatweave rugsConstruction method selected to match the design brief — combining knotting, tufting or weaving techniques where the design calls for it. Discussed in detail in the custom manufacturing section below.
See custom manufacturing| Construction | Surface Character | Design Capability | Typical Application | Customization Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hand Knotted | Dense pile, defined pattern edges | High — fine detail, gradients, curved motifs | Formal interiors, heirloom-grade pieces, low-to-medium traffic | Longer development and production time relative to other constructions |
| Hand Tufted | Medium-to-high pile, sculpted or level finish available | High — bold color blocking, logos, sculpted texture | Residential and hospitality interiors, statement pieces | Well suited to shorter development cycles than hand-knotting |
| Handwoven / Handloom | Flat-to-low pile, visible weave texture | Medium — geometric and striped patterns weave naturally | Layered interiors, transitional spaces, natural-fiber collections | Pattern complexity is shaped by the weave structure itself |
| Flatweave | Thin, reversible, no pile | Medium — strong for geometric and kilim-style motifs | Commercial interiors, layering, high-traffic zones | Lighter weight can simplify freight for export orders |
Materials
Material choice shapes a rug's texture, appearance, durability and suitability for a given space. Planet Arts manufactures across the following natural fibers.
Resilient, naturally soil-resistant, and available in both hand-knotted and flatweave constructions.
Wool rugs
A coarser natural fiber with an organic, textural surface, commonly used in braided and handwoven constructions.
Jute rugs
A softer, more flexible fiber well suited to flatweave and printed constructions, and to lighter-weight rugs.
Cotton rugs
A durable natural fiber with a distinct, slightly coarse hand, often blended with other yarns for texture.
Hemp rugs
A blended flatweave combining jute's texture with wool's color depth, used in kilim-style pattern work.
Jute-wool kilim rugsFor a deeper comparison of fiber performance and appearance, see our guide to wool and silk in luxury rugs.
Custom Manufacturing
Beyond standard collections, Planet Arts develops rugs to a buyer's own specification — dimensions, colorway, pattern, construction and material selected to fit a specific project or product line.
Custom development is available across the following variables: dimensions and shape, color palette, pattern or motif interpretation, construction method, material and blend, and pile height or surface texture. Design references may be supplied as sketches, mood boards, existing rug photographs, CAD files or physical samples.
Design brief, references and application discussed with the buyer.
Material, construction and colorway confirmed against the brief.
Sampling to validate pattern, color and construction before production.
Full production run against the approved sample.
Washing where applicable, trimming, and inspection.
Packaging and export handling to the destination market.
Sharing the following upfront helps scope a custom project accurately.
Read more on our custom rug manufacturing process and the custom rug design process guide for a fuller walkthrough, or our notes on color theory in custom rug design.
Wholesale & Export
Planet Arts supplies handmade rugs directly to professional buyers, working across the following buyer categories.
Bulk sourcing of standard collections or custom-developed product lines for resale.
Standard and private-label rug sourcing for retail and e-commerce catalogues.
Custom rug development for specific residential or commercial design projects.
Rugs manufactured for hotel, resort and commercial hospitality interiors.
Sourcing directly from an Indian manufacturer gives professional buyers direct input into construction, material and customization decisions at the production stage, rather than through an intermediary. Planet Arts exports as a CEPC-affiliated business to markets including the United States, United Kingdom, UAE and Europe.
See our hospitality rug specification guide for procurement-specific detail.
Jaipur & India
Jaipur and the wider Rajasthan region have a long-standing relationship with Indian textile and rug craft, including hand-knotting, hand-tufting and weaving skills passed through generations of artisan communities. This concentration of technique is part of why rug manufacturing is established in the region.
Planet Arts has manufactured from Jaipur since 2004, working within this existing craft base rather than operating in isolation from it. The company's constructions and material choices reflect techniques with long precedent in the region, applied to contemporary design briefs for international buyers.
Process
Manufacturing stages vary by construction — a hand-knotted rug and a flatweave rug follow different production paths — but generally include the following.
Pattern, colorway and dimensions confirmed before production begins.
Yarn type and blend selected to match the confirmed design and construction.
Dyeing and preparation of yarn ahead of weaving, knotting or tufting.
Construction carried out by hand according to the selected method.
Trimming, edge finishing and washing, where the construction calls for it.
Quality inspection followed by packaging for domestic or export shipment.
Exact process steps and sequencing vary by construction method and by individual order specification. See OUR GUIDE TO LUXURY RUGS or the construction-specific pages for hand-knotted, hand-tufted and wool rug manufacturing.
Quality
Practical factors that affect a finished rug's quality and consistency.
For a technical measure of hand-knotted density specifically, see our note on knots per square inch (KPSI).
Applications
Standard and custom rugs for home interiors.
Wholesale and private-label rugs for retail catalogues.
Custom rugs developed to a designer's specification.
Rugs manufactured for hotel and resort interiors.
Durable constructions suited to higher-traffic commercial spaces.
