History Of Area Rugs

Area rugs including oriental rugs have a rich history in the new and old worlds. Amazingly the oldest surviving knotted rug is the Pazyryk carpet found in the Altai Mountains of Southern Siberia. Dating to the 5th Century BCE (about 2500 years ago)

The practice of hand-knotting rugs today continues in contemporary area rugs as well as more traditional styles. Throughout history, area rugs and various construction techniques have spread throughout the world. Large-scale Persian and Oriental rugs have been widely produced and used in Asia area rugs and the Middle East for centuries, but were not commonly available to average European and American households before the onset of mass production. With the relatively recent production of man-made carpets and area rugs using synthetic and natural materials, floor coverings are available to fit any budget.
