Handmade Rugs

At House of Heritage, our rugs are unique due to their handcrafted nature, showcasing intricate designs with deep cultural significance. Made from high-quality, sustainable pure cotton and natural dyes, each rug reflects exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Our artisans use traditional techniques, ensuring that every piece is not only beautiful but also eco-friendly. The diverse range of patterns, colors, and textures allows for personalized home decor, making it easy to find a rug that resonates with your style. Whether it’s a block-printed dhurrie or a vibrant hand tufted carpet, each piece tells a story and adds a distinctive touch to your living space, offering both durability and aesthetic charm.

To choose the right rug size, consider the dimensions of your space and the furniture layout. For living areas, aim for a rug that fits under the front legs of your furniture to create a cohesive look. In dining rooms, select a rug that extends beyond the table and chairs. Measure your space and visualize the layout to ensure a perfect fit.

Handmade rugs differ from machine-made rugs in craftsmanship and uniqueness. Each handmade rug is created by skilled artisans, resulting in distinct designs and quality that reflect cultural heritage. They often use natural materials, enhancing durability and character. In contrast, machine-made rugs are produced in bulk, leading to uniformity and lower costs but lacking the individual artistry and charm of handmade pieces.

The best type of rug for living rooms is typically an area rug, as it defines the space and adds warmth. Opt for durable materials like wool or synthetic fibers for longevity, especially in high-traffic areas. A medium to large-sized rug that fits under the front legs of furniture creates a cohesive look and enhances comfort.

To prevent the edges of your rug from curling, consider the following tips:

• Use a Rug Pad: Place a non-slip rug pad underneath to keep it flat and secure.
• Weight Down Edges: Use heavy objects or furniture to weigh down the edges temporarily.
• Steam or Iron: Gently steam or iron the curled edges on a low setting to relax the fibers.
• Regular Maintenance: Vacuum regularly to keep the rug fibers fresh and prevent curling over time.

Yes, you can use a vacuum cleaner on handcrafted rugs, but it’s essential to do so with care. Use a vacuum with a gentle setting and avoid beater bars, as they can damage the fibers. Instead, opt for a suction-only mode or a vacuum designed for delicate rugs. Regular vacuuming helps maintain cleanliness while preserving the integrity of the craftsmanship.

The primary difference between a rug and a carpet lies in their size and installation. A rug is a smaller, movable piece that can easily be placed in various areas of a room, while a carpet typically covers the entire floor and is often installed wall-to-wall. Rugs can be layered or used as accents, while carpets are generally more permanent fixtures. Additionally, rugs can be easily cleaned or replaced, whereas carpets require more extensive maintenance.
