How to price handmade area rugs
A quality handmade area rug can add a superb touch to any room. The below information can help you find the right rug for the right price .
1.Handmade rugs should always be compared within their own family. To find out whether an intricately designed workshop item with a high knot density is priced correctly, one should compare it to rugs in the same family, meaning rugs with intricate designs and high knot density. The perfection of the design, the fine knotting, exact patterns, uniform color tones, and the very best materials are the determining factors in the value of such a rug. 2.Although in nomadic and some village rugs, knot density is usually not a
factor in the value of the rugs because nomadic rugs are judged by a different
standard than workshop rugs. Nomads do not have the same sophisticated tools as
other city weaving groups do. These items are valued by the fact that their
designs are created from memory, their dyes and materials are provided from the
nature around them, and most importantly the weavers' way of life is expressed
in these rugs. The artistic value of nomadic rugs does not lie in their
perfection; it lies in their heritage and simplicity. Even though handmade rugs, if bought correctly, are good investments, our
suggestion is that they should never be bought for the sole purpose of
investment; they should be bought for enjoyment. Do not buy a handmade rug
solely as an investment unless you are a professional handmade rug merchant. Designing your room with the area rug Avoiding scams when purchasing area rugs
