Rug Blogs: Rug Customers Do Not Know What Kind of Rugs They Are Looking For!
CategoriesRug Ideas
Yesterday, a lady came in and said she was looking for a green runner. We showed her many pieces of green runners, but she happily left with a pair of 8′ x 2′ 3″ Beige (Creme) runners. Some of rug customers do not exactly know what they are looking for.
It was while ago when a couple came in looking for a 10 x 10 feet silk rug. After two hours and messing every thing up in our rug store, they ended up liking and buying a hand-knotted Persian Sarouk rug. The wife was so excited she said she could not wait to get home!
I have had many old customers who bought modern design Persian or Oriental rugs and young customers buying classic and traditional design hand made Oriental or Persian carpets!

Greetings!
What a wonderful blog! I am new to the rug and carpet scene, although I have bought and owned several smaller rugs over the years from antique stores and auctions. But now I am getting started and have been buying quite a few. I have fallen completely in love with the carpets and the intense life and spirit they contain. Your blog is very helpful because i want to learn everything I can to educate myself and to hear the stories of rug dealers who have been around a long time. Thank you!
Thanks for the great post! I still like shaggy rugs – they're retro of the seventies and are now available in cool contemporary colours like deep black, white and grey. Nice big thick shaggy rugs feel nice underfoot too.
thanks for providing a great resource. your site is one of the best, and i will definitely refer it to my site visitors.

Persian rugs are great, even though the lady did not know what she was talking about I'm glad she left happy.
I think it is up to the rug industry to offer guidance to rug customers you need to offer support to customers so they can get a rug that will suit their room and interiors, large rugs can overpower a room but in some rooms change the look and feel of a room which can give the room a lift
Rug sales people should be aware that customers aren't always sure and will need guidance then they will come back for their next rug.
I am a rugs collector.. I have collected few and i love putting it inside our house… I am looking for more nice rugs to buy to add my rugs collections.
my inexpensive "oriental rug" is ruined, believe me nothing can bring it back. While rolling it up I noticed the back of the rug was in perfect condition and looked good. It looks like a "sisal" rug with a pattern. I am using that now until I buy a new rug. People have even commented on how nice it looks. Has anyone else done this. I know it sounds tacky but it is a temporary solutions.
Hi! You are true in saying that people do not understand what exactly they need most of the times. Even I have come across such questions a lot of times. Today I wrote a blog post on rugs. You may check it out on-

Very few people talk about rugs the way you do! Thanks for all the input.
