The dictionary meaning of "Tuft" means "A bunch or collection of threads, held together at the base." And Tufting means "To strengthen by passing a cluster of threads through the material, so making depressions at regular intervals."

So basically, Hand-Tufted carpets are made by punching or shooting woolen strands into a canvas using a hand-operated tufting gun which is a kind of sophisticated needle, and the canvas, in turn, is stretched on a frame. The rug is removed from the frame after the pile is created and then we safeguard the carpet using a heavy-duty lining at the back.
