Are you afraid of paying a lot of money for a rug that’s not high quality? To be sure you’re purchasing a rug that will last, you need to know how to spot a superior quality piece. Following tips on the best ways to identify high-quality area rugs.
Material Matters Rugs made from natural fibers such as wool and silk maintain their integrity longer than those made from synthetic fibers. Wool durability and stain resistance add to the longevity of wool area rugs.
Construction Is Key Hand-knotted rugs have longer lifespans than machine-made rugs. If properly maintained, a rug knotted by hand can last for several decades, even centuries.
Keeping the Color Intact Compared to synthetic dyes, natural dyes resist fading in sunlight. Color retention is significant if you’re looking at carpets such as floral area rugs or abstract area rugs that are rich in color.
What About Pile Height? Pile height is measured by the depth of the rug’s fibers. Low-pile rugs tend to outlive mid and high-pile rugs. That’s because they’re less likely to get snagged, gather dirt, and absorb stains.
Now you know what to look for when shopping for high-quality rugs. If you have more questions, Contact Tufenkian.
