Area rugs and carpets are a beautiful contribution to any room in your home. They are often the first thing that catches the eye as someone walks into a room. Because of that it makes sense to select and choose the right area rug or oriental carpet for each room of your home.
Hand made area rugs are still considered the best available area rug product and they possess a look and feel that is superior to most machine made rugs. You will find that most handmade area rugs use high quality wool for construction simply because wool seems to last much longer and stand up to heavier amounts of traffic than most other fibers. So pay attention to the material used to make the area rug.
The weaving process of a hand made rug can be important too as the more densely the knots are placed together the higher quality of the rug or carpet. This is referred to as knots per square inch and hand made carpets can boast a weave density of anywhere from 300 - 750 knots per square inch.
Of course, such high quality hand made area rugs can be a little more expensive, but if used in the correct surroundings and treated as a piece of fine furniture that is cared for properly, they will last for many years and look incredibly beautiful at the same time.
So when you choose an area rug, first determine where it will go and try to match the decor of that room as much as possible, then choose the level of quality that will match your budget, and you will be able to make a wise choice.
