What’s the Difference Between a Rug and a Carpet?
In the flooring industry, “carpets” are floor coverings that you install on the floor and cover wall to wall. But “rugs” generally cover a portion of the area, and you can move them around. Rugs are usually handmade, made of natural material (like wool), and have a thick construction.. The most significant difference between rugs and carpets is the value because handmade rugs are considered unique artwork and increase in value over time.
What’s the Difference Between Machine-made Rugs and Handmade Rugs?
Would you rather talk to Alexa or your real friend? Would you hang a printed, photoshopped picture or a real painting on your walls? We know your answer! Although machines have evolved significantly, they still lack that human touch and there are many aspects in which they can’t compare to humans, and rugs are one of them. Their works are not comparable to that of humans. Handmade rugs have natural-based vivid dyes, firm texture, delicate material, harmonious patterns, and above all, far higher value.
How Can You Tell a Rug’s Age?
If your Oriental rug has been chemical dyed, it’s new. If it has been naturally dyed, it’s probably an older rug. It’s also important to see if the dye reaches the base of the fiber, examine the weaving style, and the pattern in order to determine a rug’s age.
Does Oriental Rug Repair Make My Rug Lose Value?
That depends on the person in charge of Oriental rug repair. The goal in Oriental rug repair is all about being unnoticeable. An ideal rug repair is not visible to non-expert eyes. However, an unskilled person with unmatching material, and amateur weaving will make the rug look uneven and unpleasant. Poor-quality rug repair dramatically reduces an Oriental rug’s value, just like a poorly repaired car.
A typical carpet cleaning company just uses stitches to make torn carpets come together. That won’t work on a handmade Oriental rug with delicate natural material.
On the other hand, a professional Oriental rug restoration not only can undo the damages but also brings back the value your rugs deserve.
So the answer to the question depends on the quality of the rug repair, not the damaged rug. No matter how disappointing a rug might look, there’s always another chance for it with a professional Oriental rug repair.
