Frequently Asked Questions

A “pile rug” refers to a type of rug or carpet that has a pile, which is the surface or face of the rug composed of loops or cut fibers. The pile can be made from various materials such as wool, synthetic fibers, or a combination of both. The loops or cut fibers create a textured surface, and the length and density of the pile can vary.
A “hand-knotted” rug is a type of rug that is made by hand using a traditional and labor-intensive weaving technique. This method involves individual knots being tied by hand onto the warp threads that run vertically on a loom. The weft threads, which run horizontally, are then passed through the warp threads to secure the knots.
No, not all area rugs are “pile” rugs. The term “pile” specifically refers to the surface or face of a rug that is composed of loops or cut fibers. While many rugs have a pile, there are also flatweave rugs that do not have a raised surface.
No, not all handmade area rugs are “hand-knotted.” While hand-knotting is a traditional and labor-intensive weaving technique, there are other methods of handmade rug construction.
A high-pile rug is a type of rug with a deep and plush surface characterized by longer fibers. The “pile” refers to the length of the rug fibers or loops that form the surface. In a high-pile rug, these fibers are longer, creating a softer and more luxurious feel underfoot.
A low-pile rug is a type of rug with a shorter surface or pile height compared to high-pile rugs. The “pile” refers to the length of the rug fibers or loops that create the surface. In low-pile rugs, these fibers are shorter, resulting in a flatter and less plush texture.
Here are some reasons why pile rugs are often regarded as special:rnComfort: The pile, which consists of loops or cut fibers, creates a soft and comfortable surface. Pile rugs offer a cozy and inviting feel underfoot, making them ideal for areas where comfort is a priority, such as bedrooms and living rooms.
While hand-knotted rugs may be more expensive compared to machine-made alternatives, their special qualities, including craftsmanship, durability, and cultural significance, contribute to their status as prized and cherished items in the world of rugs and carpets.
Decorating around hand-knotted pile rugs involves considering the rug as a central element and coordinating other elements in the room to complement its colors, patterns, and style.
Hand knotted rugs include traditional Persian rugs, silk rugs and primitive wool mats that represent many styles and cultures. The knot count is one specification that shoppers rely on, but that alone cannot determine a rug’s quality. The number of knots per square inch is affected by the foundation material, fiber gauge and knotting techniques. Regardless of the origin or style, hand knotted rugs are the paradigm of this highly evolved handcraft.
Pile rugs are soft and luxurious to walk on, and they come in a wealth of magnificent patterns, colors and styles. The tradition of making pile rugs is not a new invention. The process goes back thousands of years and is found throughout many ancient cultures. If you have ever wondered how these rugs are made, read on.
In the world of oriental rugs, you will often hear the terms pile rugs and kilims. To understand pile rug, let us first start with the kilim. Kilims are also known as flat weave rugs. It is created by weaving the weft threads in an over and under pattern on the warp. In the next row of weaving, the threads that were passed over in the previous row will be passed under in the next one, and vice versa.
To create the pile, a knot is hand tied around each individual warp thread as the weaver goes across the row. It may be noted that in some pile styles the knots are tied around two warp threads, or sets of warp threads, but in most places each knot is tied around one warp thread. The weaver then uses a tiny knife to cut the thread before tying the next one. The knife has a hook on the end to assist in tying the knot.
