Carpets made of natural materials, especially wool, are very popular. Woolen carpets are characterized by high quality. Their only disadvantage is that at first the fibers climb out of it, which greatly complicates the care of them. Carpets are stored in folded rolls, so it does not deform and does not lose shape. It is quite difficult to remove the stain from the carpet, so it should be used carefully. With proper care and storage, the carpet will last 20-50 years. Wool absorbs moisture well, does not create static electricity.
When buying a carpet, you should pay attention to the density of knitting. Many people think that the heavier the carpet, the better and denser it is, but it is not. You can judge the density of the carpet by the clarity of the picture. Tight knitting gives a clear, pronounced pattern, in addition, such a carpet does not deform, while maintaining its original state. As with any purchase on the carpet, there must be special documents that indicate all its characteristics. Quality have a density of 300,000 to 2 million knots per square meter. A dense carpet will last much longer.
An equally important characteristic of a wool carpet is its pattern. You can recognize this carpet right away, because on it the pattern exactly repeats the pattern of the front side. Carpets are painted in two ways. The first method is to paint the finished carpet. This option is inexpensive. In the second method, the yarn itself is dyed, and then a carpet is made of it. The color of the carpet will help him harmoniously paint into the overall interior of a room or apartment. For a well-lit room on the south side, a carpet of cold tones will do. It is better that the carpet is close in color to the shade of the floor, then the carpet will look stylish and appropriate. Do not choose too colorful carpet. Against the dark floor, carpets look lighter in tone. For a small room, it is not recommended to buy a carpet with a too colorful pattern.
The cost of a carpet depends on several factors. First of all, from the length of the pile. A long pile rug has a price higher than a short one. They make carpets from sheep, goat, camel wool. Goat hair is less valued compared to camel hair. European manufacturers make quality woolen carpets at an affordable price. Products of folk craftsmen also attract customers and inspire confidence. For many buyers, the shape of the carpet is of great importance. Square carpets are less appreciated, since making them is much easier than oval. They are accordingly cheaper.
