In ancient times, rug weavers weaved rugs as if they were painting. Some people did it out of necessity and some did it for art. I don't know if they were aware at that time, but today this is a great art. Over time, this art turned into commerce.

The main point of this colossal workmanship is Central Asia. But much of Turkey, Afghanistan, India, Turkmenistan and shape their own lives in the past, such as Persian, reflecting the thoughts of countries and cultures has made weaving rugs.

At that time, people were weaving rugs only for themselves, not for sale. Since these people were intertwined with nature, they used to produce the paint we call "madder" with special plants they collected from mountains and slopes. For the production of madder, they first pulverize the different colored plants they have collected in the mill and then boil it into the original paint. Finally, they would mix it with wool, produce many different colors of wool and use it in their rugs.

Of course, this would not happen only with dye and wool, and they used to weave rugs with looms they designed with their own hand labor. The most important feature of the rugs of that period was their large size. We can say that the average length of one of them was 30-40 square meters.

Its weaving and characteristics are also different from region to region and from culture to culture. For example; While Persians weave by throwing a single wedding, Turks made knots by tying double knots. Weaving with double knots also makes Turkish rugs more durable. Also, while Persians produce fine and cotton. Turks, on the other hand, used thicker and completely wool.

While wool and silk are used in rugs, the quality of the wool used also indicates the quality of the rug. For example, the wool of a slaughtered animal does not shine and becomes useless, while the wool of live animals shines easily and is more useful. Also; The wool on the back of the animal is also different from the wool on its chest. It is harder because it constantly sees the sun on the back. However, the wool on his chest is softer.

The best thing about rugs is that they become more valuable over the years. When pricing the rug, it is looked at popular the year in which the rug was produced rather than the square meter. In addition, the prices can easily change according to the number of stitches and especially the workmanship.

Technology has both harms and benefits over rugs. Thanks to technology, these amazing works of art spread all over the world and people had the opportunity to get to know them. It has also become a livelihood for some traders. Although rug production machines make our lives easier, unfortunately, these antique works have affected the non-weaving of these antique pieces. As before, it seems like no one produces or produces handmade rugs anymore. But this situation led to the emergence of a new profession; We can say that he is an antique rug repairer or repairer.
