Rajasthan is well known for its traditional, colorful art and grand forts and Palaces. This time I went to explore the blue City of Rajasthan \u2013 JODHPUR    <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, I start my travel with quintessential monuments of the city I am visiting, but this time I planned to start differently. I started my tour at the famous Jodhpur\u2019s Bishnoi Village Tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started with Salawas village in Jodhpur, which is also known as \u201cWEAVER\u2019S VILLAGE\u201d<\/strong> where weavers work together to create magic carpets locally referred to as DURRY\u2019S<\/strong>. Weaving a Durry is 300 years old traditions that are woven at home by a family in the village and thereafter sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wondering! WHAT\u2019S DURRY\u2019S?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Basically, Durry is the floor covering, somewhat resembling a rug, woven on a loom using cotton, silk, jute, or wool yarn. It is used as a substitute for carpets, as a rug. At home, one can use them for a table cover or cover corridors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW IS IT MADE?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Durry weaving techniques are extensively popular in JODHPUR and plenty of tiny villages in Rajasthan. Durries are made in vibrant colors by skilled artisans on a traditional horizontal loom or vertical loom. In Rajasthan, looms are called Pit looms which are also used for weaving wherein weaver sits in a pit and used their feet in weaving<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>There are numerous designs of durry; the common ones are different mix-match of color stripes and geometrical designs. Animals and motifs design are rare however are often made on traveler\u2019s demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standard size of durry is 3 x 5 feet, 4 x 6 feet, and 6 x 9 feet. Depending upon the size, pattern, and material, durry can be used for a variety of purposes.
