Looking for the ultimate wedding gift? Why not give a Persian or Oriental rug to the happy newlyweds?

A Persian rug shows the couple that you’re certain their union will be one that lasts. It’s something that they will be able to pass down to their children and/or grandchildren. What’s more, those grandchildren will be able to pass it down to their grandchildren! If you were given a Persian rug as a wedding gift, why not start the tradition yourself and give your son or daughter the rug as a gift for his or her marriage?

Rugs aren’t normally what comes up when one thinks of wedding gifts, but a Persian rug is more than “just a rug.” It’s a true work of art! If you provide the newly married couple with an antique rug, it’s not only a work of art, it’s a precious gift and ready-made heirloom, which can increase in value over time.

Unlike machine-made rugs, a Persian rug will be able to withstand the wear and tear it will receive over the life of the couple’s marriage: pets, children, parties, moves to new homes, graduation celebrations, engagement parties for the couple’s children…and will withstand visits from subsequent grandchildren!…

Home Design: Pairing Modern and Traditional Rugs in Your Living Space

If you have a large living space in your home, you’ve probably considered decorating with multiple rugs. This can make a room more lively and interesting, with multiple focal points to draw the eye. But how do you choose the right combination of colors, shades, patterns, and styles to ensure the look is cohesive?

You can hire an interior designer, or you can read this blog.

One of the most popular methods is to pair rugs with similar colors but different designs. A traditional rug along with a modern rug can go together if the colors are quite similar. Mixing patterns with colors in the same shade family can result in a pleasing aesthetic. Consider using the most trendy colors to keep the space fresh. Light blues, grays, tans, and rusts are easy on the eyes while also being quite current.

Classic medallions pair well with the abstract designs that are common in modern pieces. This pairing keeps your home from feeling stagnant, as can be the case when traditional rugs are paired with conventional accessories and furniture.

Too often, classic patterns make an already traditionally decorated room appear stuffy.…

Why Does my Rug Still Smell after Washing?

The dirt hiding in your rug’s pile is destroying your fine rug. Over time, dust and debris travel down from the top of you rug to settle in the pile. This can cause your rug to smell, but even worse, it can damage the fibers of your rug and create micro-tears, causing the foundation to wear away, revealing threadbare patches.

So, where does this damaging debris come from, how does it build up over the years, and how can you remove it?

The debris that settles into the pile of your rug typically comes from the daily use of the rug. Pet dander, hair, and urine, skin cells, dirt from outside, food particles, and humidity create the perfect environment for a type of clay mixed with microorganisms to form in the rug’s pile. Vacuuming just pushes this clay deeper into the foundation of your rug. Foot traffic grinds it in as well.

Some types of dirt, such as sand, have sharp edges that can cut the strands of the rug’s wool fibers. This causes fibers to be added to the dirt trapped in your rug, making larger and larger amounts of damaging debris laying in the pile.…
