Many new homes have hardwood or tile floors, which can be softened by simply adding a sisal area rug.

Hand Knotted and Hand Tufted Area Rugs: Many people are confused by the term "Oriental rug," which is often used to describe any patterned carpet. A true "Oriental rug" is a rug that is hand-knotted in a traditional weaving area in the Middle or Far East. "Oriental rugs"; are never made of synthetic fibers or by machine, and are always hand knotted. Hand tufted area rugs are often mistaken for hand knotted "Oriental rugs," yet are different for a number of reasons. Hand tufted area rugs are made using a tool that punches strands of wool through a canvas. Once the design is complete, a piece of fabric is glued to the back of the rug to hold the wool pile in place. The yarn is not knotted, and the fringe on the ends of the rug is usually glued in place, and is not a part of the actual carpet. Hand knotted area rugs show the pattern of the rug on the back as tiny rows of knots, since every piece of yarn is knotted by hand. The designs of hand knotted rugs tend to be more intricate, and therefore take longer, making these beautiful rugs more of an investment than a hand tufted rug. The colors and patterns of hand tufted and hand knotted rugs are often very similar. If you love the look of a hand knotted area rug, but need a less expensive alternative, you can likely find a very similar hand tufted rug that will cost less. |
