How to select an area rug!

There is a rich history of area rugs. Area rugs and various construction techniques have spread throughout the world. Persian and Oriental rugs have been widely produced and used in Asia and the Middle East for centuries. Due to the high demand and price, they were available to average European and American households. With the relatively recent production of manmade carpets and area rugs using synthetic and natural materials, area rugs are available to fit any budget. Hand tied rugs have always been considered valuable and a great investment. However, the techniques used to create machine made rugs make a good alternative.
