can simultaneously serve as extremely attractive decorative
elements that emphasize the warmth of the room
and bring the atmosphere to a whole new level. Wool
carpets are regarded as highly durable, and they’re
also strong thermal isolators that fall into the category
of ecological carpets. As far as the decorative dimension
goes, wool carpets also have plenty of value, but
there are some flaws that come with them. Wool carpets
are often very thick and heavy, which makes them
the ideal surface for collecting dust and mites. They are
also not very convenient for people that have the tendency
to be allergic to animal hair. Although they can
be cleaned by vacuuming relatively easily, they can
collect a lot of dust during a prolonged period of time,
while “wet” cleaning can provide them with an uncomfortable
odour for quite some time, which makes regular
cleaning a necessity. However, due to the fact that
wool carpets have a warm and pleasant effect, some
flaws ought to be forgiven. Besides wool carpets and
those made from synthetic fabrics, what’s almost just
as popular today are carpets and decorative covers
made of cane and bamboo, and they are produced
by mechanical embroidery of thin laminas. Carpets
of cane and bamboo laminas excellently adjust to all
spaces that are dominated by a slightly oriental style,
but they look just as good even when they’re combined
with modern furniture and the currently popular minimalist
approach to decorating and furnishing space.
These models are very convenient to all rooms because
they are maintained very easily. Thanks to a straight
and relatively smooth surface, bamboo and cane carpets
don’t collect or hold on to dust, are very light and
can be taken outside and simply given a good shake;
they are also easily vacuumed, and they are very good
at handling being cleaned with wet mops. It’s also
been easy lately to find surfaces made of coconut fabrics
that are very attractive, but they are often coated
with pesticides, so before you decide on buying them,
make sure to take a close look of the declaration to be
certain that the manufacturer meets all the ecological
conditions.

In the World of Fairytales – Hand-Woven Carpets
Considering the fact that one square metre of a handwoven
carpet requires several weeks of work, which leads
to as much time as two years if we’re talking about multicoloured
carpets, it is no wonder that they achieve the
highest prices and stand for the peak of luxury. Hand-woven
carpets are accessible only to the wealthiest among
us, and depending on the type, method of production
and the material, their prices are reaching the heights of
several dozens thousands of euros. Hand-woven carpets
bring the ambience of exotic countries, and their ornaments
and details reflect ancient traditions of countries
like Iran, India, Afghanistan, Turkey, Kazakhstan etc. There
are numerous techniques of weaving and knitting, and
their details are often abstract or faithfully transmit scenes
from the flora and fauna of Eastern countries. Just an expensive
decoration that will bring warmth to your home?
Not at all! Hand-woven carpets are much more than
that. They are genuine works of art that have a remarkably
high value. If you decide on buying a hand-woven
carpet, position it to a visible place and don’t put any
furniture over it to avoid any possible damage.
Maintaining and Cleaning a Carpet
Regardless of whether we’re talking about a carpet
made of synthetic fabrics, coconut fabrics or a thick wool
carpet, they all demand to be maintained. Besides dust,
mites also represent a big problem because they like to
crawl under the carpets as well as inside them, similar
to the way they often invade beds and seating ensembles.
Dust and mites are best prevented by regular and
thorough vacuuming, and the absolute best results are
guaranteed by vacuum cleaners that don’t use classic
filter bags, but rather use water that makes it impossible
for dust to return into the room. After the vacuuming,
you simply pour the water into the drain, while the tank
can be cleaned very easily. If it is regularly vacuumed,
any carpet is bound to be clean and tidy, but don’t forget
that it is just as important to maintain the lower side
of the carpet.
