How the Right Rug can Compliment Your Home Lighting

As expensive as luxury rugs are, one cannot simply expect such beauty and magnificence to last without proper care and maintenance. Investing in luxury pieces such as Persian or Moroccan rugs demand more than just the initial cash payments.

There’s isn’t quite anything like the effortless power of an antique rug to make a dull room look exceptionally sophisticated. Fused with proper placement and a collective theme, investing in the right rug indeed goes a long way.

As one of the most celebrated and appreciated pieces from the Iranian culture, Persian rugs have long been a staple in the households and interiors of the rich and the artistic.

Like any interest, the world of rugs may be a little too intimidating and vast for a novice. Granted, rug connoisseurs started somewhere themselves but it’s quite agreeable that there should be guides⁠—especially for styles.

There’s just something about rugs that express one’s individual style. Perhaps it’s in the details of how this exquisite piece of art was made or maybe it’s the patterns and colors that reflect the artistic side of the individual—may it be subtle or bold.

If you want both the traditional style and modern hues with the rigid formality, simply find yourself a transitional rug. Taking the best of both worlds, you get an even more flexible piece to decorate the house with. 

To the eyes of a novice, rug weaves all look the same and would not necessitate a second glance for inspection. But discerning eyes subject each and every knot to scrutiny before deciding to make a purchase. 

Timeless as they are, vintage rugs always bring a suave touch to any room it graces. Not only because of the apparent monetary value, but also the history that is seen with the knots and patterns weaved onto the rug.
