Company replicates prestigious carpet designs
Handmade Bulgarian carpets are making their way into some of the most extravagant buildings. One company has decided to create replicas of some of the most prestigious carpets from the 18th century.
The factory has employed experienced weavers who are among the last in Europe.
They dye the wool for the carpets in all possible colors which allows them to make exact replicas of any ancient carpet.
Company officials say lack of records about colors or the density of knots means they have to rely only on pictures.
Bulgarian carpets cover floors at places like Buckingham Palace, Vienna's Albertina Museum, and properties of the Dutch Royal family.
The company says all the materials used are 100 percent natural and from Bulgaria with no chemicals or bleaches used in the coloring process.
