Traditional rugs are referencing rug designs and styles that became home decor classics, Persian and oriental rugs are some of the most recognized styles. These rugs are loaded with great symbolism and over the years they have adjusted to match with today's modern home decor. They are a magnificent floor coverings that will add immediate style and elegance to any home environment.
That balance between traditional style with contemporary designs creates a remarkable contrast that looks great to the eye, it is important to make sure the surrounding colors match to create an adequate blend.
When you decided to buy a traditional rug choosing the color is important to add the right personality to the space you are decorating, other considerations you need to take is the space you have available and what other colors are at work in the room.
- As a general rule, light-colored rugs are good in small spaces or spaces with dark walls, as they can make the space feel bigger, while dark-colored rugs can bring a coziness to an oversized space.
- It’s also a good idea to choose colors that play well with the tones that already exist in your room. If you already have some furniture you want to match with your new traditional rug you might want to look for complementary color patterns, it can be a great idea to contrast the color you have or look for something similar to unify the room style.
- Alternatively, you can go with complimentary colors, such as a brown rug against beige woods or a light gray rug in a room that has darker walls.
The time artisans dedicate to create traditional rugs by hand is one thing that make them so unique, there are no two pieces that are exactly the same, these rugs are made with great attention to detail and using material of the highest quality that can last over years and keep their shape when you look after them.
Another main benefit of traditional rugs it's that they are usually made with sustainable materials that are great with the environment and always put together with remarkable aesthetics.
Traditional rugs are usually made of wool, it is a natural fiber that is incredibly durable and feels great underfoot. To take care of your traditional wool rug, one basic tip is to use a rug pad, they are super useful to provide comfort and cushion while keeping your rug firmly in place on the floor.
New traditional rugs made of wool rugs are likely to shed, we know at first might be too much, but we advise you to vacuum your rug once or twice per week, do it in the direction of the pile, and you will notice how the excessive shedding will go away with time.
As mentioned before wool is a natural fiber, with this material it is better to avoid using harsh chemicals. The best option to deep wash your rugs is to dilute soft soap in a generous amount of water and always test what ever product you are using in a little spot of your rug.

Great design. Very happy with rug.
I was enchanted by the Kimono rug the first time I laid eyes on it and continue to be so now that it’s in my living room. The outstanding quality, gorgeous design, colors, soft texture of the wool and exquisite artisanship make it a beautiful rug to experience. It has inspired me to add color and texture to my living room that used to be neutral. The kimono rug and the purchasing experience was exceptional from start to finish! I highly recommend Rugs Done Right and Jamie who was a pleasure purchasing from and assisted me with above the level service!
