Beautiful Rugs boasts an unrivaled oriental rug gallery that features dozens of rug styles. They are arguably the best rugs you can get for your home or workspace. They are like works of art that you can use and admire every day and one of the few items of home decor that still have that old-world charm to them. While all oriental rugs are beautiful and unique, some of them are certainly more popular than others, such as Persian rugs. This is because of their impeccable quality, distinct designs, and patterns, knotting techniques, special color palettes, place of origin, and so on.
The art of carpet weaving dates back thousands of years. Initially made for their functional quality, they gradually became items of lavish decor, with fine oriental rugs also often used as a status symbol. An authentic oriental rug is a heavy hand-knotted pile rug. Although there isn’t any substantial record of how long they’ve been around, the oldest oriental rug, a Pazyryk, which was found in a burial site excavation in Siberia in 1940, is estimated to be from the 5th. century BCE. The rug, a richly designed piece, is believed to have been made in Mongolia using the Ghiordes hand-knotting technique, which continues to be used even today. While historians suggest that Mongolia created the first hand-woven pile rugs, it was the Persian weavers who perfected them and made them what they are today.

Many people ask us whether Persian rugs are the same thing as oriental rugs and vice versa. They aren’t. While all Persian rugs are oriental rugs, all oriental rugs are not Persian rugs. An Oriental rug is an umbrella term that includes rugs made in Asian and Middle Eastern countries like Iran, Turkey, India, Pakistan, China, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and so on and often referred as Caspian oriental rugs. Persian rugs are rugs that made solely in Iran.
Over the years, the popularity of oriental rugs has only continued to grow. This has led to the emergence of rug-making factories in Europe and the United States, but they create mass-produced designs that do not compare to the exquisite beauty of the handmade varieties.
