The weaving is done, the surface is softened, the form perfected — yet the rug still awaits its final moment of care. In Ruh Rug, finishing is called Sacred Completion because it is where the last human touch seals the months of devotion poured into the piece.

Here, every inch of the rug is examined under attentive eyes and steady hands. Loose threads are trimmed, fringes are evened, and edges are strengthened with binding that secures the knots for decades to come. The surface is given a final gentle cleaning, not only for presentation, but as a blessing — a gesture of honor before the rug begins its journey to the home it was meant for.

This stage is also where the artisan quietly lets go. For months, the rug has been in their hands, a daily companion. Now it will carry its beauty and meaning into another life, another space. Just as a calligrapher sets down the pen after the final stroke, the weaver offers the rug with silent prayer that it may serve as a place of peace, remembrance, and connection.
