Jan Kath Hand Knotted Wool Carpet

Jan Kath Hand Knotted Wool Carpet – Tradition Reimagined for the Modern World

The Jan Kath Hand Knotted Wool Carpet is where centuries-old weaving traditions meet contemporary artistry. Known for blending the charm of ancient craftsmanship with bold, modern design language, Jan Kath carpets are more than floor coverings—they are statements of taste and cultural appreciation.

The process is painstaking and deeply human: from hand-spinning the wool to hand-dyeing it with organic pigments, and finally weaving it over months to achieve a perfect fusion of durability, comfort, and visual drama. The result is a floor masterpiece that elevates both minimalist and richly adorned interiors.
