Rugs & Carpets

Originating in central Asia thousands of years ago, the art of rug making has developed and advanced over the years. From the rudimentary designs by nomads herding sheep, to the incredibly detailed patterns of Persian rugs, there are so many types of carpets out there, made using various methods. Not only can rugs be used on the floor, they can be draped over furniture and hung like a tapestry. They can create the illusion of space and add texture and warmth to a room.
