Quality tolerances and inspection regime for handmade rugs: weight, size, skew, colour approval

Published by Raheem & Son, founded 1927 in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, India. The tolerances and inspection regime that Raheem & Son states for handmade rugs: weight within plus or minus 5% of specification, size within plus or minus 3%, skew within 1 inch (about 2.5 cm), and colour approved as a lab dip before production under D65, TL84 and A light. The note also sets out where checks happen in an order (material intake, loom, post-wash finishing, pre-shipment), why dryness matters, how a buyer can add independent inspection, and what to put in writing. Describes one manufacturer's stated practice, not an industry standard. Contains no prices.
