Oriental Antique Rugs
Oriental antique rugs are hand-woven rugs made out of natural fibers. These rugs are either knotted with pile or woven without the pile. An authentic Oriental antique rug never contains synthetic materials and is never machine-made. It is free from any artificial substances and no part of it can ever be made on a machine.
These antique rugs originate in geographies once known collectively as the Orient – the Near, Middle and Far East. The most significant feature of an Oriental antique rug is the fact that it is entirely handmade. The rugs have become a symbol of a luxurious lifestyle, and the value of these rugs tremendously increases over time.
As genuine Oriental antique rugs become scarce and demand for them rises, their prices soar ever higher. These antique rugs are proving to be great investments that can be preserved for a lifetime and that will continue to yield dividends – the older the rug is the more its value appreciates. A superior quality antique rug can last for many years, and you can pass it on to the next generation if you take good care of the it.
Oriental antique rugs fall into several categories – including antique Persian rugs, antique Chinese rugs, antique Turkish rugs, and antique Central Asian rugs – based on the geographical area in which the rug is made. The Oriental antique rugs are also known as antique hand-knotted rugs, as the pile is always tied by hand to the foundation, which makes it unique. Oriental antique rugs never develop wrinkles and they lie flat, which is another important feature that adds to their value.
