What You Should Know: By asking these questions, the dealer is trying to gauge which grade and style of carpet would work best for your home. Try to give a detailed picture of your expectations for the carpet. Is it important that the carpet stand up to pets, running children and bustling activity? Or are you mainly concerned about how it will look and feel in a formal living room that doesn't get a lot of use? Color and Style Typically, a dealer might ask: How much use will the room get? This is a consideration because a heavily used room may not be the best place to install white or very light-colored carpet. Are kids going to be playing down on the floor? Or is it a formal room that doesn't get much use? Again, lighter colors my create more maintenance but another factor the dealer is trying to consider is whether you should choose carpet made with BCF fiber like STAINMASTER® so that children playing on the floor will not find themselves covered in loose fibers shed from staple products. Is it a small room or a large room? Smaller rooms can be made to feel larger by selecting a lighter colored carpet while larger rooms can be made to feel cozier by using a mid-to-darker colored carpet. What are the lighting conditions in the room? Rooms with plenty of natural light will show the true color of the carpet while rooms on the north side of a house may need a lighter shade of carpet to keep them from feeling darker than they are. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #handmade #machine_made #persian #persiancarpet #oriental #orientalcarpet #persianrug #orientalrug #yyc #calgary #alberta #canada (at Chinook Mall) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwGRFZghsDy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dwuw2x5lkolg

However, all other things being equal, the higher the carpet density, the more durable the carpet will be, and the more pleasing it will be underfoot. Just as a lawn is more luxuriant if the grasses are thick underfoot, a carpet with higher pile density will feel plusher and will hold up better with wear. Minimum Density Values For optimal performance in normal household conditions, a density value of 3000 or higher is ideal. According to the Carpet and Rug Institute, extra heavy traffic conditions (such as are found in heavy commercial use) require a minimum density of 5000. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #handmade #machine_made #persian #persiancarpet #oriental #orientalcarpet #persianrug #orientalrug #yyc #calgary #alberta #canada (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv0DZEIhYQv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m4q6mrid39wz

Carpet density is calculated using the following formula: Carpet face weight multiplied by 36 divided by carpet pile height equals density, measured in ounces per cubic yard The pile height is the length of the carpet fibers from their end tips to the point where they reach the carpet backing. In the above formula, pile height should be represented as a fraction of an inch, reflected in decimal format. For example, a pile height of one-half of an inch would be represented as 0.5, while a pile height of a one-quarter of an inch would be 0.25, and so on. The number that results from the above density calculation will be a four-digit number. For example, a carpet with a 50-ounce face weight and a pile height of half of an inch would have a density of 3600 ounces per cubic yard (50 x 36 / 0.5 = 3600). Judging Carpet Quality Don’t use one factor alone as an indicator of a carpet’s overall quality. All factors (density, face weight, twist, fiber type, etc.) all work together to determine how the carpet will look and perform overall. Each of these factors must all be taken into consideration when making a decision on the appropriate carpet for your home . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #handmade #machine_made #persian #persiancarpet #oriental #orientalcarpet #persianrug #orientalrug #yyc #calgary #alberta #canada (at Somerset – Bridlewood) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvfjpstgK8e/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9v82m624yklv

Calculate Carpet Density The density of a carpet is one of many factors that determine a carpet’s quality and overall performance. Despite a common misconception, carpet density and carpet face weight are not interchangeable terms that mean the same thing, although face weight is one factor used to calculate density.  Face weight and density are two entirely different components when it comes to evaluating the quality of a carpet. * Carpet face weight refers to the weight of the fiber found in one square yard of carpet. The standard is measured in ounces. * Carpet density refers to how close together the fibers are tufted into the carpet backing. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #handmade #machine_made #persian #persiancarpet #oriental #orientalcarpet #persianrug #orientalrug #yyc #calgary #alberta #canada (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvc_vI6l_ZE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=454smlzou9aj

Turkish Rug . Dyes There are two types of dyes which are used to dye wool for weaving: vegetable dyes and chemical dyes. Rugs which are made using natural dyes are the most preferred. The natural dyes are obtained from three sources: plants; animals; and minerals. Plant sources are used most widely in rug production. Some of the examples of colors obtained from plants and animal sources are: red (RUBIA TINTORIA); yellow (GENISTA TINTORIA); navy blue (ISOTIS TINCTORIA and INDIGO FERETINTORIA); gray and black (OVER LUS); brown (JUNGLAND REGIA); and red (DACHYLOPIUS COCUS). Dyeing threads by using sources from nature is an art which has been practiced since ancient times. Anatolia has a large variety of plants available for dyeing purposes and this is where the craft of dyeing has been improved throughout centuries of experience. Plants gathered from natural sources are still widely used today. Motifs There are many different types of motifs and emblems which can be seen on the rugs. These are classified into two groups: 1. Geometrical or Stylized Motifs 2. Naturalistic and Floral Designs The motif on the rugs represent Anatolia and Central Asia and their civilizations. These compositions, motifs, and designs represent the origins and culture of a society; therefore, a rug can be considered a cultural item. Each of the designs is meaningful, not an accidental drawing. To understand the meaning of every motif would be a very long and tiring process, as there are so many of them which have accumulated throughout the centuries. The motifs on the rugs represent Anatolia, Central Asia and their civilizations. Some of the most common motifs on rugs are the TREE OF LIFE symbolizing long life and re-birth; the HORNS OF ANIMALS which symbolize power; HANDS ON HIPS symbolizing female fertility and the mother of God; and the HANGING CANDLE symbolizing the holy (eternal) light. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #handmade #alberta #canada (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvaxMLdgLV0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t8ki3fs5vzt5

The Craft of Weaving Rugs A rug is a handicraft which consist of two parts; the skeleton of the rug, which is formed by vertical and horizontal threads called "warps" and "wefts" and the part which resembles a picture and is like velvet, which is called the "pile" of the rug, made by knotting different colors of thread. In order to form motifs, there are two knotting techniques: Turkish double knot Symmetrical knotting, double or Turkish knotting. Each knot is made on two warps. In this form of knotting, each end of the pile thread is wrapped all the way around the two warps, pulled down and cut. Non-symmetrical or single (Persian) knotting. While one end of the thread is wrapped all the way around the warp, the other end goes just beside the other warp. Then both ends are pulled down and cut. Persian single knotThe steps for weaving a carpet are written below: The weaving is started from the bottom of the loom. First the kilim part (flat woven part) is woven at the lower edge. The weaver then takes a piece of wool which corresponds with the pattern and forms a knot on two warps. Then she cuts the surplus wool with a knife. After one row of knotting is completed, she then passes a weft thread in between the front and back warps. The weft threads are used to strengthen the weaves of the carpet. Then she will take the "kirkit" (a heavy comb like tool) and vigorously beat down the row of knots and weft, in order to obtain the desired tightness and to make the knots and weft compact. Following this step, with a pair of adjustable scissors she cuts the surplus colored threads to obtain a uniform level of pile thickness. This process is continued until the carpet is complete. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #handmade #machine_made #persian #persiancarpet #oriental #orientalcarpet #persianrug #orientalrug #yyc #calgary #alberta #canada (at Calgary Southwest) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvTGtLigHq_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4woahilq18yu

The 16th century was the beginning of the second successful period of Anatolian rug-weaving. The rugs from this period are called "Classical Ottoman Rugs". The reason these rugs are called "Palace rugs" is that the design and colors would have been determined by the palace artists and then sent to the weaving centers. this method was similar to that used in the ceramic tile production of that period. The designs, which consisted of twisting branches, leaves and flowers such as tulips, carnations and hyacinths, are woven in a naturalistic style and establish the basic composition of the rug. This style was continued in other regions and can be seen in Turkish rugs today. In the 16th, 17th and 18th century, Gördes, Kula, Milas, Ladik, Mucur, Kirsehir, Bandirma and Canakkale gained importance as rug-weaving centers, along with Usak and Bergama. The rugs woven in some of these areas are known as "Transylvanian Rugs" because they were found in churches in Transylvania. In the beginning of the 19th and 20th centuries, the rugs woven in Hereke (nearby Istanbul) gained worldwide recognition. These rugs were originally woven only for the Sultans of the Ottoman Empire. The finest silk rugs in the world are still being woven in Hereke today. We can identify the rugs woven in different regions as town or village rugs. The rugs woven in the agricultural areas of Anatolia owe their origins to the settlers or nomadic cultures. In Europe, these rugs (which are woven with wool on wool) are generally called "Anatolian Rugs" In towns where people have settled permanently, the rugs are woven with a wool on cotton combination. Today in Turkey there are regions which keep this wonderful tradition alive; such rugs are woven in Konya, Kayseri, Sivas, Hereke, Yagcioglu, Kula, Dösemealti, Taspinar, Isparta, Milas, Bergama, Canakkale, Kars, Usak, Gordes, Fethiye and Yahyali. . 📞: +1(403)398-7755 . 📧: caspian.rugs.1940@gmail.com . 🌐: https://www.caspianrugscentre.ca . 📍: 104-6008 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB T2H 0K1 . #caspianrugscentre #caspian #rugs #centre #rug #carpet #carpets #yycinteriors #yycinterior #interior #design #designer #home #house #calgary #alberta #canada (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvNZ-HFAUSO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wjm7rf6w6ldx
