Paul from The Web -

Though not as popular as they were in the 1920’s and 30’s Hand Tufted area rugs are still an excellent option. Hand-tufted rugs appear to be the same as hand-knotted and are commonly mistaken for each other, but in that Hand-tufted area rugs are not as strong as the knotted type they are much more reasonably priced. This type of area rug is so much less expensive is because they are much simpler and faster to make. While most handmade area rugs are hand knotted there is a different weaving process that doesn’t involve any knots at all. This process is known as hand-tufted. The most common material in hand-tufted area rugs is the pre-woven canvas though there are other fibers that can be used including wool, silk and in some cases synthetic fibers.

Hand-tufted area rugs come in a very wide variety of colors, patters and styles. They often look very similar to oriental rugs however they can also feature decidedly unconventional and vivacious designs.

Hand-tufted area rugs are an excellent choice for anyone who would like to have a hand made rug but finds the prices to be a little out of their range. With the huge variety of colors, patters and styles these area rugs can really brighten up a room and if chosen carefully and maintained well they can still last a very long time.
