What is a vintage carpet?

Unlike antique or semi-antique carpets, the antique carpet model does not try to restore the carpet to its original state, and tries to design a new style. For example, old modern rugs have been completely restored and almost completely repainted. Then they are dyed with new modern colors and patterns. So a brand new rug in modern vintage style has been created from an old oriental handwoven rug with a long history.

Today, chemical compounds such as calcium hypochlorite are used to age carpets. These materials make the carpet look old. Of course, note that the use of these materials will not affect the life or quality of the carpet.

This beautiful and unique carpet model will add extraordinary beauty to your home.
