Finding the Right Rugs And 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 Red Afghan Rug
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Afghan rugs known as Shindand or Adraskan rugs are named after the towns where they’re woven in the western Afghanistan province of Herat.

Shop a collection of vintage and contemporary Afghan rugs from top sellers worldwide on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Afghan rugs are hand-woven from wool and traditionally made in Afghanistan. Each rug will vary in design, size and color, so no two rugs are exactly alike. A hand-woven rug will not have machine stitching on the ends, instead, it will be hand-knotted. Browse a selection of expertly vetted Afghan rugs on 1stDibs.

    That is like asking - how much does a painting cost. Bottom line - it depends on the rug and how of an example it is (and how old / rare it may be)
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To spot an authentic Afghan rug, first check the knots on the back. The finer the knots, the better the quality. Afghan rugs are also 100% wool, which doesnt light when touched by flame, though it would be better to have a professional test the authenticity than trying this at home. Find an assortment of Afghan rugs from some of the worlds top sellers on 1stDibs.

    The perfect color rug for complementing a red couch is a matter of preference. However, neutrals work incredibly well with red seating furniture — consider white, grey or beige rugs for this kind of pairing. The neutral shades tone down the overpowering hue of red and lend a sense of balance to one's living space. Find antique and vintage rugs and sofas today on 1stDibs.
