After a long day at work, sinking your feet into the soft plush pile of a beautiful rug is one of the most soothing experiences imaginable. Carpets, it would be naive to claim, are simply utilized for aesthetic reasons. Of course, they have a significant impact on how a space looks.
However, they also come with several handy applications. They're soft and comfortable, block loud noises well, and are very cost-effective.
In 1949, a Pazyrk Carpet was discovered in a Siberian burial mound. It was dated to the 5th century BC when examined! In cave entrances, early humans utilized skins from animals like bears or tigers as some type of scarecrow to frighten predators away.
The nomads also utilized rugs for a variety of purposes in their homes, including as insulation against the cold and dirt, as well as construction and sleeping on a soft surface. Many rugs from the 14th through 17th centuries have survived today and are prized collectibles.
The largest carpet in the world is in a Mosque in Abu Dhabi :
A carpet, not a rug, is defined as anything larger than 40 square feet. The largest carpet in the world was WOVEN covering 60,546 square feet! It may be found at Sheikh Zayed Al Nahyan Mosque in Abu Dhabi. In 2007, Iranian Artist Ali Khaliqi directed the creation of this work of art. It has more than 2.2 billion hand-tied knots and weighs over 12 tons.
This isn't the most interesting fact, but it is certainly essential. Carpets are fantastic at capturing dust mites, pollutants, and allergies. While this is an advantageous quality since it keeps the air in our rooms clean, the opposite is also true.
If rugs aren't cleaned regularly, germs will grow and be harmful to our health. That is why it is advised that rugs be professionally cleaned every 12-18 months.
