Namdas

Namdas are a kind of mattress, originally from the state of Jammu and Kashmir. These are made by felting the wool rather than weaving it. A low quality wool mixed with a small quantity of cotton is used to manufacture namdas. They are usually of two types, plain and embroidered. Formerly, woolen yarn was used for embroidery, but now acrylic yarn (cashmelon) is in use. Namdas and gabbas are embroidered with thread, which gives colour, beauty and strength to them. This cottage industry is concentrated in Anantnag, Rainawari and Baramula.

Carpets

The Indian carpentry tradition dates back to the reign of the Mughals. During the time, the handmade wool carpet from India was a fine expression of the dexterity and creative skill of the craftsmen who combined Persian and local patterns in the most delightful ways. Carpets offer practical and environmental benefits. They are aesthetically pleasing, welcoming, comfortable, luxurious and warm. Carpets provide heat insulation and can generate significant energy savings. They create a safe environment providing a non-slip surface, and the ability to soften any impact. Carpets absorb airborne pollutants to give better air quality indoors; they are easy to clean and they reduce noise rather than magnifying it. The quality of these traditional wool carpets is determined by the number of knots per square inch. The higher the number, the more refined is the woolen carpet. The durability of the knotted wool carpet also depends on this number, which usually varies from 200 to 900 knots per square inch. Wool carpets are made in several parts of India. The famous hand knotted woolen carpets from India hail from 1.Bhadohi, Mirzapur, Khamaria, Ghosia, Varanasi & Agra in Uttar Pradesh2.Amritsar & Pathankot in Punjab3.Jaipur in Rajasthan4.Kashmir5.Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh6.Darjeeling in West Bengal.
