Antique Rugs

The world of antique rugs is very much similar to other antiques.Above all, you must be knowledgeable in the items you are seeking
or looking to buy or collect. If you have little knowledge in this regard, find someone to trust at first and begin to learn as much
as you can because it will save you much headache and problems.You may even recognize a "find" when you see one.that is half the fun
anyway, isn't it?

Where to Look

Flea markets are very popular places as well as garage sales, moving sales and of course, these days the internet plays a big part in anyone'ssearch. Be careful though, as scams abound; "caveat emptor."

You can always go to an antique store of course.This is where you will definitely find an antique rug, but not always the best deal.
Know your rugs and their prices and you will fare much better.

If your rug has a tag on the back you can always write down the information and start your education by calling the manufacturer. they
would be delighted to help you as they are hoping to make a customer also.

Regardless of the path you take, be patient and learn as much as you can and always be careful before you part with your hard earned money. Happy hunting!
