A rug is a fabric covering that covers and protects the floor. It can be rolled up and moved around easily.
Rugs are available in a wide range of sizes and colors and can provide an opportunity to define or accent a space with dramatic impact and contrast. They are easy to maintain, washable and provide a soft surface for walking on. They also add warmth and sound deadening. A good rule of thumb is to have the rug extend at least 12 inches beyond the sides of a twin or double bed and 18 inches in the case of a queen or king size bed. This will give the area a more relaxed feel. Rounds work great in the center of a room while runners are a great option for skinny areas like hallways or doorways.
Generally, rugs are categorized by their age, with “antique” reserved for those older than twenty-five years. Age determination is a subjective process that requires an understanding of weaving techniques, craftsmanship and cultural history. Rarely, a rug will bear a woven monogram or inscription that can be correlated with a verifiable date.
Weaving category refers to the method of production: nomadic, village or workshop. Nomadic rugs are woven free-hand from memory by semi-nomadic tribeswomen, and typically display compositional boldness, simple color palettes and dominant geometric forms. Village rugs are produced on stationary looms and often preserve the creative, individualistic vision of the weaver. Workshop rugs are made in full-time workshops and may display similar designs to village rugs but with the added technical skill of professional weavers.
