So what do you
do when you want to add style and elegance with just a single piece of
decorative item? What will enhance your hallway or room adding a touch
of class? The answer is a rug runner.
They are one
of the most famous Persian rugs and their long and narrow shapes add
sophistication and highlight a particular piece of furniture. They are
usually used near the entrance, the staircase or the kitchen. They
also tend to break the monotony of a large room or hallway. The Area
Rug Runner can be used in both the traditional and contemporary
manner.
So what are
the factors to be kept in mind before you decide to go in for your
area rug runner?
Size, color
and pattern are the three most important factors as they can either
enhance or ruin your hallway or room. A big or small rug runner
which does not complement the size of the room will ruin the entire
visual experience. The color of the room must not be in contrast to
the rug. A subtle or flamboyant pattern depending on the nature of the
room will add grace to it.
The rug
runners are mostly hand made or machine made. Intricate designs are
made in the hand woven rug.
The hand made
ones are expensive as a lot of human effort is spent in weaving the
perfect rug. They are made from silk, cotton, wool and synthetic
fiber. The shapes may also vary like round, oval, rectangular and
square. The size is usually from 2.5 feet to 20 feet.
There are a
wide range of designs available. The most famous ones are Ahar rug
runners, Hamadan rugs, Gharadjeh rugs, Sarab Oriental, Koliai, and the
Meshinkar. Depending on your budget and your preference of materials
used you can chose your rug. So go ahead and flaunt your rug runner.
