What are antique rugs? Where does their value come from?

In carpet literature, a carpet is generally considered "antique" if it is at least 100 years old or possesses the most exceptional artistic qualities of its period (the era in which it was produced).

1. The Pinnacle of Naturalness:Antique carpets are produced without any industrial processes. The yarns are hand-spun, and the dyes are entirely derived from plant roots (madder). Therefore, the colors of antique carpets are not monotonous like those of synthetic carpets, but have a vibrant and deep structure that dances with light.
2. The Beauty of Patina (History):Just like antique silver gleams, antique rugs develop a "patina" over time. The wool shines with use, the colors mature and soften. This natural luster is the greatest evidence of the rug's age and nobility.
3. Uniqueness:These carpets don't have a template. The master weaver improvised, incorporating their feelings and regional motifs at that moment. Therefore, there is no other antique carpet like the one you own in the world.

Antique Touches in Modern Decor

The perception that "antique rugs are only used in classic homes" has completely changed. Today, the world's most famous interior designers use antique rugs to add character to ultra-modern and minimalist spaces.

• Harmony of Opposites (Contrast):In a modern loft apartment furnished with white walls, glass tables, and metal details, a worn antique rug placed in the center instantly breaks the coldness of the space. This contrast both highlights the rug's artistic value and adds intellectual depth to your home.
• Focus:An antique rug is not just a decorative element, but the star of the show. When decorating a room, the best approach is to center the rug and choose other furniture accordingly (for example, selecting cushions in a similar tone to the rug).
