rugs are greatly bound up with mankind’s evolution. The very first rugs originate from the Near East. The most ancient specimens of rugs date from the fifth century Â.Ñ. Archaeologists discovered them in the Himalayas, and now you can see them in museums such as the Hermitage. Probably these rugs have been weaved in Assyria. Even at those ancient times people were engaged in the rug weaving. In past, rugs were intended for the needs of one family solely. As far as rugs served as floor coverings they were getting frayed with time. A threadbare rug was thrown out, and a new one was weaved instead. Lamb wool was the most common material to weave rugs from. In past rugs used to be quite small. In addition they couldn’t boast about high thickness – only 10-40 knots per square inch. Situation has considerably changed since the beginning 19th century. A commercial period has begun. Machinery was used in the rugs weaving. Such factory-made rugs were intended for sale solely. Nowadays, you can meet different rugs all over the world. Among Asian countries China, Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, India are the biggest manufacturers of rugs. | ||||||
