From dimensions and materials to style and craftsmanship, numerous factors must be carefully considered when choosing your rug. Such as where it will be placed and what purpose it is meant to serve, for example, is it a statement piece or a functional one that prevents slips.

Frequently Asked Questions
There are various types, each offering its own distinctive charm and appeal. The primary categories include Oriental rugs, known for their intricate handmade designs and patterns, and Modern rugs, which showcase contemporary designs and colour schemes.
Rug quality is assessed through various factors, such as knot count (higher counts often denote superior quality), the materials utilized (like wool, silk, or synthetic fibers), the rug’s age, and the complexity of its design. Handmade rugs, particularly those boasting a high knot count and crafted from natural fibers, are typically regarded as of superior quality.
When selecting a rug, it must accommodate the size of your seating area rather than the entire room. Ideally, all the furniture within the seating area should fit comfortably on the rug. If that’s not feasible, at the very least, the front legs of larger furniture pieces should rest on the rug. In a dining area, ensure the rug is sufficiently large to accommodate the chairs, even when pulled out from the table.
