All Persian rugs are Oriental rugs, but all Oriental rugs are not Persian rugs. Let’s understand the differences and nuances of both rug types a bit better in this blog.

There is nothing quite like a quality area rug to enhance the value of your home. From a statement piece for your lounge, a grand entry or providing a splash of colour in your family room, an area rug can play many roles. Not to mention adding warmth to cold floors in winters.



Among the many types of area rugs on the market, Persian and Oriental rugs, especially antique pieces, are particularly popular. They are not just stunning in their make, but if you buy the right antique piece, the value of your rug could appreciate over time.
