-
What is the difference between a hand-knotted rug and a machine-made rug?A hand-knotted rug is made entirely by skilled weavers without the aid of any machines or technological automation. It is one of a kind, comparable to a work of art, and will endure centuries if properly cared for. This includes the shearing, spinning, and dyeing of the wool as well as the hundreds of individually tied knots. On the other hand, a rug that has been manufactured by an automated machine is called a Machine-made Rug. This machine frequently produces hundreds of the same size and style rugs in a single day. Despite the fact that machine-made area rugs can look nice, their integrity and material quality are much lower than handmade rugs.
