How Silk Area Rugs can Best be Utilized in your Home

There’s no fabric quite like silk. Gently culled by hand with the finest of old-world craftsmanship, there’s no one word that quite describes silk. It’s just, well, silk! Bring home that softness and luxury with silk area rugs. Whether in the bedroom or living area, silk area rugs provide that touch of elegance that every home needs. Handmade silk rugs, Chinese silk rugs, and Turkish silk rugs each lend a timeless quality to every floor they grace. You can bring this look home with a visit through our websiste. Explore our selection of silk area rugs and wool silk rugs. You’ll find hand knotted silk rugs and silk rugs for sale at prices you won’t find at that expensive home goods store. Don’t you think your home deserves the look and feel of silk? Go ahead and indulge – you’re worth it!

If you want to create the best and most beautiful traditional space in your home that you possibly can, you should definitely consider a silk area rug to help you accomplish this. Silk rugs are a very traditional and old-fashioned way of beautifying the space in any home, and although they’ve been around for a long time, they aren’t going anywhere in terms of popularity, either. Silk rugs have a place in any home, and no matter what kind of space you’re trying to create, you can do all that and much more with an elegant all-natural eco friendly silk rug as your centerpiece.

What are Silk Area Rugs?

Silk is a beautiful, soft, but surprisingly strong type of fiber made by silkworms and processed into elegant and luxurious fabrics, threads, and clothing. Historically, it has been a very expensive product that is difficult to make and even more difficult for many people to afford. Although the prices of silk have improved significantly in recent years, a 100% pure silk area rug is still going to cost quite a lot more than many other materials, and if you want something like an authentic traditional Persian silk rug, you can expect to pay a very significant amount of money for the honor of owning such an item.

However, you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a nice silk blend rug for your home, and this is the route many people take when they want to decorate with silk. Wool and silk rugs, for example, can be a lovely addition to your traditional interior decorating spaces, and since both of these materials are all-natural and eco friendly, you can enjoy all the great qualities that come from natural fibers without worrying about buying something manmade. Silk rug cleaning can be an added expense that goes along with owning one of these products, so be sure to budget appropriately for this possibility.

Best Sizes of Silk Area Rugs

Silk rugs work best in small sizes, but that’s not to say you can’t find a larger silk rug if you’re looking for something like that. One of the biggest reasons why they’re usually produced in smaller sizes is simply because of the cost of producing a 100% silk rug. Most consumers don’t want to pay the price it would take to bring home a full silk rug in a size over 10 feet wide, and if that’s true of you, don’t worry! That doesn’t mean you can’t have a beautiful rug in your home. It just means you’ll need to rethink your sizing options.

If you’re willing to use a blended material, such as bamboo silk rugs, you can find these in 8x10 or 6x8 sizes pretty easily. Sari silk rugs can be found in sizes between 2 feet and 9 feet in width, and you don’t have to be too limited if you’re willing to go a little smaller than an extra large rug. Choose 8 to 10 foot wide rugs if you want a silk rug in your living room or parlor, but go for 4 to 8 foot rugs or even smaller in your formal dining room or bedroom.

What Shapes of Silk Rugs are Available?

Traditional shapes are where it’s at when it comes to buying a silk rug. Stick to a silky shag rug in rectangular or square shapes to have the best of both modern designs and traditional materials and shapes in your beautiful transitional living room. Tibetan silk rugs are also widely available in these common sizes, and you can also find them in round shapes here and there if you want something slightly more modern and casual to help balance the look and feeling of your silk rug selection.

One of the less explored uses for silk in area rugs is the runner rug. These rugs are often overlooked when made of silk because of how delicate they are. While a silk runner rug might not be a great solution for the entrance to your home where muddy feet and paws are likely to walk over it several times a day, it can make for a beautiful addition to your formal parlor or even your dining room, as long as you keep it away from the table itself.

What is the Best Room for Using Silk Rugs?

Silk rugs should be kept away from food sources as well as from sources of heat and flame, so it’s best not to use them in the kitchen, especially if you’re looking for 100% silk instead of a blend. However, other than keeping them out of the kitchen, you can use silk rugs pretty much anywhere else in your home. A silken shag rug can be a fun and whimsical addition to your dining room, as long as you take care not to place it near the table where it could get stained or soiled with food. It can also be a great way to casually use silk in a more traditional and upscale bedroom setting.

Try a silken ivory shag rug as the centerpiece in your modern or transitional living room for a very unique experience. The shag material can help you create a bit more of a modern space, but the silk material and the simple ivory shade can help draw the room back to the more traditional. Pair this rug with ivory furniture and use chrome for your accents if you want to have a beautiful, sophisticated, and elegant transitional space that treads that line perfectly.

You absolutely can’t go wrong with a silk rug. Silk has been used for the production of area rugs for centuries, and it still remains an incredibly popular option today. Since it’s so popular, it can be very easy to find, but because of its delicate nature, it may also be difficult to clean. You may end up paying a lot more for this type of material, too, but if you’re looking for an elegant rug to use as decoration in a room that doesn’t see a lot of foot traffic, a silk rug can be the most wonderful part of your home. Make sure to take care of it properly and you’ll have it as part of your interior space for many years to come.
