Flat Weave Rugs - Flat weave rugs, also referred to as flat woven rugs, contain firmly compressed pile fibers that create a compact, durable carpet. The compact structure makes it difficult for dirt to enter the rug fiber making them easy to maintain. The flat surface is also due in part from the absence of knots. By utilizing warp and weft strands as the foundation, flat weave area rugs have become well-respected for their beauty, efficiency and durability. Their unique make-up allows them to lay undisturbed beneath furniture without the usual marks and imprints that are seen on higher pile rugs. The themes derive from cultural and historical traditions, environment surroundings as well as geometrical and floral pattern. Find them in many different materials including silk, cotton, synthetics and wool. The quality of wool is determined by the origin of the rug. Warmer regions will produce brittle, dryer wool whereas healthy sheep in colder regions will produce soft, silky wool. Cotton rugs tend to have a more compact weave due to its elasticity.
