Mid Century Rugs

Rugs from the mid-century that are distinguished by their distinctive designs and superior craftsmanship have a unique place in the realm of interior design. They were first discovered in the Middle East; these rugs were typically made of goat hair and sheep wool and showcase the rich history of rug-making. But, at the turn of the 20th century, the art of rug design saw a significant change.

The mid-century era saw an evolution in materials due to the introduction of synthetic filaments such as nylon in 1935. This revolutionary innovation revolutionized the carpets, making it easier and more readily available to create exquisitely tufted carpets. In contrast to traditional carpets, rug designs often have intricate designs, with borders, inner space and a central plan. The coordination between the interior part and the frame is carefully thought through, resulting in visually pleasing and pleasing compositions.
