Vintage Rugs
Vintage rugs have become popular over the years. In recent years, older rugs have been seen to complement modern homes as the style, design, and overall construction are more vibrant and solid. The intricacy in detail sets it apart from modern rugs. The patterns and style of the traditional rug remain an exquisite insight into the interior design of contemporary living.
Vintage rugs also known as distressed vintage rugs are fashionable, affordable, handmade, and hands-down to be beautiful at the same time. It’s now common to see people not just wanting their rugs to live in but to look lived on. They want it to be the reflection of beauty for their home decor and consider it a vital part of their interior design.
The process of making distressed vintage rugs is quite different from other rugs. It starts with collecting hand-knotted vintage oriental carpets and Turkish rugs in mint condition. The first step is to even out the pile by shearing and helping distress (give (furniture or clothing) simulated marks of age and wear) the rug without damaging it. After this, the drying and washing process starts. To remove any odors or stains, we then carefully wash and dry the rugs. Having the desired look in mind, some rugs are laid out under the sun to have more mellow colors without involving any chemical process.
There are many benefits of an overdyed vintage rug. First off, you’re contributing to a sustainable practice as well as purchasing an on-trend item. The process of recycling helps these traditional rugs to be preserved for future generations. Moreover, compared to other vintage kilims and carpets you can pick up a quality handcrafted overdyed rug for a fraction of the price you’ll spend on other antique rugs. This makes the vintage rugs a much more affordable option.
