Inside a High-End Handmade Carpet Production Workshop

We often think of craftspeople as lone artisans toiling in solitude, so it’s neat to see an ages-old craft that requires the cooperation of multiple craftspeople working side by side and collaborating on the same workpiece. Here we get a rare look inside a high-end handmade carpet producing facility in Sweden, Märta Måås-Fjetterström, which has been around since 1919 and whose pieces are in such high demand that they can fetch $40,000 for just one.

The work is both highly manual and highly technical.
