Actually all carpets in the world can be divided into handmade rugs and factory-made rugs. Let’s look back to the history of carpets. It is now well known that the rug weaving was widespread even at ancient times. As far as handmade rugs used to be woven rarely, every family owned only a limited number of carpets.
When a rug was getting frayed enough it was thrown out and a new one was woven instead. Handmade rugs had individual patterns and could serve through the years. Situation with rugs has greatly changed since the nineteenth century. With the development of machinery factory-made rugs have come to existence.
Nowadays it is getting very hard to find real handmade rugs. But it doesn’t mean that factory rugs give in to handmade ones. You shouldn’t underestimate factory rugs – they gain by geometric characteristics, at the same time handmade rugs are squared less properly.
