Antique rugs are very popular today. People consider them very valuable decorations in their home interiors.
The most popular antique rugs are Persian and Oriental rugs. Asian people have been weaving carpets since 500 BC. Five people out of ten were carpet weavers, thus earning a living and investing new things in the country’s culture.
Antique rugs illustrate the history and civilization of China, India, Turkey, Nepal, Turkestan and Afghanistan. The rugs are mainly weaved with bright, colorful fibers. Bright colors are the main characteristics of almost all Oriental rugs.
Anatolian and Chinese rugs are the most desired carpets among collectors. Their patterns, mainly elucidating the flora and fauna of the region, are unique and nice. Sometimes you wonder how handmade rugs can have such patterns.
Many rug collectors all over the world visit Iran for one purpose: to examine Persian rugs and to get to know the rug weaving history. The luckiest and the rich ones manage to purchase one or two carpets during their visit. Most of them can’t afford more than that.
If you are also fond of antique rugs and want to have an Oriental rug in your home, get ready to pay a rather big sum of money. As for me, they are worth their price.
