Like a valued work of art in your
favorite museum, an old or antique rug is an heirloom
to enjoy through the centuries. Each one tells a story
with rich legacies and splendid motifs.
Old and antique rugs enjoy intricate
patterns repeated throughout, and are woven in India,
Turkey, Persia and the Orient. Antique rugs usually are
more than 100 years old, while "old" rugs are
somewhat newer, yet retain a full sense of color and style
that are very different from 20th-Century rugs.
