DUBAI -- Jaipur Rugs, an Indian hand-made area rug design and production company based in Rajasthan, announced the opening of its flagship retail store in Dubai at Alserkal Avenue.

Spanning over 7,000 square feet, the store showcases an extensive collection of handcrafted rugs, created by skilled artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations. The designs, intricate patterns, and vibrant colors will mesmerize visitors to the store and add an element of elegance to any living space.

"Following the success of our store opening in Milan in 2021, we are delighted to bring Jaipur Rugs to Dubai and open our flagship store for the region at Alserkal Avenue," said Yogesh Chaudhary, Director, Jaipur Rugs. "Dubai is known for its appreciation of art and culture, making it the perfect destination to showcase our exceptional rugs”, he added.

Conceptualized and designed by multi-award-winning interior designer Pallavi Dean, the space provides a window into the historic, picturesque architecture of Jaipur. The store is a stunning visual ode to the traditional stepwells of Rajasthan, known as baoris. Dean is particularly known for her evocative designs and innovative approach to interior spaces.

“We have taken a departure from conventional rug displays by ingeniously incorporating the architecture of the space to blend design, craftsmanship, and innovation offering a truly captivating experience for the visitors. Furthermore, we have introduced three enchanting experience rooms Housed within jewel-themed domes: the Sapphire Room, Emerald Room, and Ruby Room. These remarkable spaces feature carpets that extend from the floor to the ceiling, creating an immersive environment where the rugs themselves become magnificent works of art”, reveals Dean.

Visitors to the Jairpur Rugs store can explore a diverse range of styles, colors, and textures, from traditional to contemporary, catering to various aesthetic preferences and interior design concepts. Among the collections on display is the “Manchaha” series, which merges design and social impact.

“Literally translating to ‘from the heart’, our Manchaha initiative empowers artists in rural India to create their own designs, which become both a form of self-expression and a source of sustainable livelihood for them and their families. The artists tell their personal stories through elements of their own culture and surroundings,” explains Chaudhary.


Following the successful open of its Milan location Jaipur Rugs decided to launch in Dubai.
 
Jaipur Rugs is a family business that was founded by N.K. Chaudhary in 1978 with just two looms and 9 artisans. It now has over 7,000 looms and sells in over 85 countries. It was strengthened with the purpose of protecting ancestral know-how and connecting rural craftsmanship in India with the rest of the world. The company has grown to become the largest network of artisans in India with over 40,000 rural artisans out of which 90 percent are women operating in 600 villages across five states.

In 2004, Jaipur Rugs founded the Jaipur Rugs Foundation. Its mandate was to reach out to remote rural areas and establish bonds with the village communities, so that they can start weaving not only rugs but also their own lives. The foundation continues to empower rural India by providing them with access to healthcare, education, financial inclusion as well as skill development.

The Jaipur Rugs store at Alserkal Avenue is open daily from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm. For further information, please contact Jaipur Rugs on 04 398 8780 or visit www.jaipurrugs.com.
