Using an oriental rug to pull your room together is sometimes like purchasing artwork.\u00a0 The options are overwhelming and\u00a0the styles unlimited.\u00a0 Not all Oriental rugs are created equal, so it is important to know a few tips\u00a0about what makes a better quality rug.<\/p>\n

Oriental rugs have traditionally been defined by the area in which they are produced.\u00a0 Hand knotted Persian rugs have\u00a0been the gold standard for years, made in what is now Iran. However, India, Turkey, Tibet, China and Pakistan are now known\u00a0for their superior standards and techniques.\u00a0\u00a0The knots are typically measured by the square inch, with higher numbers of knots making a finer rug.\u00a0 The more knots, the more defined the pattern becomes \u2013 some of the finest rugs have just as distinctive patterns on the back of the rug as the front.<\/p>\n

At Hickory Furniture Mart, you will be able to see a large selection of fine rugs and become more educated on the differences in quality.\u00a0 The quality of wool will make a difference, as will the intricacy of the pattern.\u00a0 Many times silk is used in conjunction with wool to create colored highlights in the rug.\u00a0 Traditional rugs will bear more colorful patterns which are also indicative of the region they were knotted in.\u00a0 A well made Oriental rug will have clarity to the pattern and will not become fuzzy or flattened with use.<\/p>\n

A fine Oriental rug will last a lifetime, and often increase in value. Like any home furnishing, rugs are subject to trendy colors, but there are many classic styles that will stand the test of time.\u00a0\u00a0 A center medallion with floral infused\u00a0designs is much more classic and likely to look timeless\u00a0in a home.<\/p>\n

By visiting the North Carolina\u00a0Furniture Showrooms, you will soon see why purchasing a quality oriental rug is worth every penny.\u00a0 Be certain to bring your room dimensions and fabric samples to match.\u00a0 When investing in a quality Oriental rug, purchase the largest size that can be used in your space and fit your budget.\u00a0 You\u2019ll be thrilled with the way it defines your room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
