Many people call me and ask, "how a lot is it to clean a rug?" after which they tell me the size. Typically they have either an inexpensive machine-made rug which they purchased at a store, or even on the street, or perhaps a valuable hand-made rug. Often they definitely do not know what they've, as in the case of "my Aunt died and left me this rug." In those cases, there may perhaps be years of accumulated dirt inside the rug, specially if it's "natural fiber" (wool, cotton, silk or "bast fiber" for instance sea-grass or jute). It truly is my tips to you, the consumer, to find out what type of rugs you may have, if you haven't already. Also, just so you know, area rugs should generally be cleaned about just about every 12 to 18 months, as ought to wall-to wall carpet. Absolutely nothing expresses warmth much more than rugs, just like the Shag Area Rug you can see on this page.
Oriental rugs in the Southeast, in particular Florida, ordinarily go for considerably much less than they do within the Northeast, including New York. For whatever reason, a lot of areas inside Florida are inundated with such rugs so they sell rather cheaply at auction. It really is a matter of supply and demand. But where do these rugs come from? Some come from estates. When somebody passes away, several times their possessions are sent to auction and those possessions can, and generally do, include Oriental rugs. A number of the rugs that come from estates can bring a lot more capital than is customary, even in Florida. This is for the reason that estate rugs have not been on the open market in some time. Most of them get handed down to family members over a period of lots of years so they qualify as antiques just before they finally make it to auction. Oriental rugs are considered antiques right after 50 years, in contrast to most antiques that need to be about for 100 years.
Area Rug/Carpet Question?
I am repainting and decorating my spare bedroom and have a question regarding carpet and area rugs. The room has honey stained pine hardwood floors which I want to keep. I dont really want to have carpet installed in the room, so here is what i'm thinking. How do you think it would look if I bout a piece of carpet alittle smaller than the size of the room and put that down? Like 3-5 inches of hardwood still exposed around the edges of the room. Would this look weird? I want just a plain colored light tan carpet with a thick nap or shag like. Any body have this or seen it done? Also should I do something to the edge of the carpet to keep it from unraveling? Thanks for any help
1st of all what you are proposing is very common and works well. So, yes it's a good idea.
Shag carpet works well for this because it gives you great contrast from the flat surface of the wood.
You definitely would need to bind the carpet, so here is my suggestion.
1. Use blue tape to lay out your rug size and shape. Just put the tape around the room just where you want the rug to go. Don't be afraid to move the line in or out to work around features of the room.
2. After completing the above, draw the shape onto a piece of paper, measure the dimensions and add them to your new drawing.
3. Take your design to your local independent flooring store and have them help you select the right carpet. They will be able to give you a price for the material and the binding complete. You may want them to give you a price option on a felt backing which will protect your wood floor from abrasion. Or if you prefer you can by cushion or a slip knot rug mat to lay under your new rug.
Good luck!
Having said that, the majority of Oriental rugs, at least within the Southeast, come from rug dealers. A lot of auction houses have arrangements with 1 or extra rug dealers to auction rugs for them on a standard basis. A dealer will ship an auction residence a supply of assorted rugs as well as the auction house will sell a particular number of them at each and every of their sales. When inventory gets low enough, the dealer sends far more rugs. You might wonder why would an Oriental rug dealer send rugs to auction if they're going to bring a minimum amount of funds when they can get so significantly a lot more selling them retail? Which is a fair question. The answer is a two-fold 1. First, the majority of rugs sent to auction, though they're quite expensive, have minor defects and are as a result not of the quality necessary for a store's showroom. Nothing expresses warmth much more than rugs, just like the Shag Area Rug you can see on this page.
Do your homework. Familiarize yourself with nearby rug dealers. Shop their stores and take a look at their prices. Attend a couple of auctions that have Oriental rugs for sale and see what they sell for. More importantly, who's buying them? Are the dealers which you have met the ones who are bidding on them and buying them? If so, they're most most likely decent rugs. Most dealers will not buy sub-standard or defective rugs at auction, considering that they're the ones who send those sorts of rugs to auction inside the first place. Given that most dealers have access to an unlimited number of rugs via their connections, as soon as you know what you're doing, don't be afraid to bid against them. They'll only pay so a lot at auction for a rug. Bear in mind they're obtaining wholesale so they can mark it as much as contain their profit margin. If you bid additional than they do, you may get it for a good deal less than their retail. Absolutely nothing expresses warmth extra than rugs, just like the Shag Area Rug you will see on this page.
