1. Rug Size Guide for Indian Homes

Perfect rug sizing anchors furniture and defines spaces in living rooms, bedrooms, or dining areas.

• Living rooms: 8x10 ft or 9x12 ft rugs with front legs of sofa/chairs on surface.
• Bedrooms: 8x10 ft extending 18-24 inches beyond bed sides for cozy grounding.
• Dining: 9x12 ft under table + full chair pull-out clearance (24-30 inches).
• Hallways: 2-3 ft wide runners for traffic flow; layer with kilims for versatility.

Check Construction & Knot Quality

Authentic handmade rugs show on the back: inspect for even knots (no straight glue lines) and irregular patterns. Higher knots per square inch (KPSI 120+) means finer detail in hand-knotted Persian, Turkish, or Tibetan styles from Bhadohi weavers. Hand-tufted offers carved textures; flatweave kilims are reversible; pit loom durries breathe in humid climates.

Select Materials & Pile Height

Wool withstands Indian high-traffic; silk-wool blends add luxury sheen but suit low-use areas.

• Low pile (<0.25 inch): Modern, easy-clean for hallways.
• Medium (0.25-0.5 inch): Versatile living rooms.
• High pile: Plush bedrooms.

Opt for natural dyes—vibrant on back, fade-resistant for sunny homes.
