Finding the Right rugs-carpets for You

Good antique rugs and vintage rugs have made their way into homes across the globe, becoming fixtures used for comfort, prayer and self-expression, so choosing the right area rug is officially a universal endeavor.

In modern usage, “carpet” typically denotes a wall-to-wall floor cushioning that is fixed to the floor. Rugs, on the other hand, are designed to cover a specific area and can easily be moved to new locations. However, the terms are interchangeable in many parts of the world, and, in the end, it won’t matter what you decide to call it.

It’s well known that a timeless Persian rug or vintage Turkish rug can warm any interior, but there are lots of other styles of antique rugs to choose from when you're endeavoring to introduce fresh colors and textures to a bedroom or living room.

Moroccan Berber rugs are not all about pattern. In fact, some of the most striking examples are nearly monochrome. But what these rugs lack in complexity, they make up for in brilliant color and subtle variation. Moroccan-style interiors can be mesmerizing — a sitting room of this type might feature a Moroccan rug, carved wooden screens and a tapestry hung behind the sofa.

Handwoven kilim rugs, known for their wealth of rich colors and unique weaving tradition, are pileless: Whereas the Beni Ourain rugs of Morocco can be described as dense with a thick surface or pile, an authentic kilim rug is thin and flat. (The term “kilim” is Turkish in origin, but this type of textile artistry is practiced all across the Balkans, throughout the Arab world and elsewhere.) 

When it comes to eye-catching floor coverings, the distinctive “medallion” pattern of Oushak rugs has two types of rounded shapes alternating against a rich red or blue background created with natural dyes, while the elaborate “star” pattern involves large eight-pointed shapes in diagonal rows alternating with diamonds.  

If you’re looking for something unexpected, find a runner rug that pops in your hallway or on your stairs. Dig for dazzling geometric patterns in our inventory of mid-century modern rugs and carpets, which includes works designed by the likes of Swedish textile masters Märta Måås-Fjetterström, Marianne Richter and other artisans. 

Carpets and rugs have been around for thousands of years. Prehistoric humans turned to animal skin, wool and fur to craft simple fabrics to soften hard terrain. A 2016 study suggests that "cave lions" were hunted for exactly this purpose, and that decorating your cave with their pelts may have conferred strength and prestige. Although many of these early textiles are still in existence, tracing their precise origins is difficult. Carpets quickly became such a valuable trade commodity that the weavings could easily travel far from their places of origin. 

The oldest known carpet was found in southern Siberia. (It may have traveled there from Persepolis in Iran.) For the flat-weave floor rugs crafted by Native Americans, cotton was the primary material before sheep’s wool was introduced in the 16th century. In Europe, carpet-making was fundamental to folk art, and Asian carpets imported to European countries were at one time considered a precious luxury and not intended to remain permanently on the floor. 

With the variety of area rugs and carpets rolled out for you on 1stDibs — a collection that includes traditional, modern, minimalist rugs and other coverings of all kinds — things will be looking up whenever you’re looking down. 

Questions About Paul Klee Rug
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022

    Paul Klee was famous for his artwork, which influenced a number of avant-garde styles. The Swiss-born German artist was a pioneer of Surrealist automatism, a way of drawing without focusing on conscious thought and instead letting lines occur automatically. He also made significant contributions to Primitivism, a style inspired by ancient techniques, and reductivism, which breaks familiar symbols down into their most basic parts. Some of Klee's most well-known works include Castle and Sun, Senecio, Cat and Bird, Fish Magic, Ad Parnassum, Angelus Novus and Flower Myth. Find a range of Paul Klee art on 1stDibs.

    Yes, artist Paul Klee was considered an abstract artist but did not start working in abstract until a visit to Tunisia in 1914. Prior to 1914 and following it, he continued to experiment with different artistic moments including surrealism, expressionism and cubism. But it is through his abstract work that he is best known and he produced the largest number of works of art. Shop a selection of Paul Klee pieces from some of the world’s top art dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Paul Klee had a style all his own and has been termed the father of abstract art, a Bauhaus master and a leader in Surrealism. Yet his paintings are still hard to define and are distinctly “Klee”. He embraced the abstract and relied heavily on shape and color as forms of expression, while leaving behind the material world. On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
