Where should I place a room size carpet?

Room-size carpets anchor primary living areas, dining spaces, or bedrooms by unifying surrounding furniture arrangements. Placing them centrally allows the primary medallion and border details to remain visible. Ensure the space receives indirect sunlight to prevent uneven fading of natural dyes over time. Using an appropriate underlay pad prevents slipping and reduces friction between the foundation and the floor.

How do I tell tribal rugs from city carpets?

Tribal rugs typically display geometric patterns, asymmetrical motifs, and spontaneous colour shifts reflecting nomadic traditions. Their construction often incorporates coarser wool and irregular dimensions. City carpets feature refined floral curves, precise symmetrical medallions, and consistent knot densities. These urban pieces usually utilise finer cotton foundations and standardised workshop formats.

What is a prayer rug used for?

Prayer rugs feature a distinct architectural niche design, known as a mihrab, pointing toward Mecca during daily devotions. Their compact dimensions made them portable for individual daily use. Over time, collectors have prized these smaller formats for their focused iconographic designs and fine craftsmanship. They function well in smaller spaces as decorative accent pieces.
