A Persian Rug Will Meet Your Taste And Budget
Among the ancient civilizations the Iranians were one of the first to weave rugs. Indeed, the Persian rug is an inseparable part of Persian art, culture and Iranian daily life. It’s a little bit hard to imagine an Iranian family without a rug since rugs are the Iranians’ most valued and treasured possessions.
According to Wikipedia, Persian rugs can be divided into three groups: Farsh which is otherwise called ‘QÄlii’, QÄlicheh, and nomadic carpets known as Kilim.
Persian rugs are weaved either by hand or by machine. It requires much skill, effort and time to weave a rug. As a matter of fact, rugs are weaved after several months and even years of hard work.
Wool, silk and cotton are the most common materials used for weaving rugs. Silk rugs are less common than wool ones because unlike wool, silk is more precious and rare. Apart from this, silk is more often used in weaving tapestries.
A Persian rug has a wide variety of designs and styles. These designs featuring names of places and people carry different meanings. Persian rugs representing thirty days of the month and the four seasons of a year are also available.
Both large Persian Rugs and smaller ones are in great demand. By the way, small Persian rugs are also used as prayer rugs.
You can easily purchase a Persian rug online and have it delivered to your house.
