Here are the characteristics to take into consideration:

• material;
• size;
• shape;
• colour.

Zili rugs are manufactured by hand, using flat-weave processes. They are approximately 10 mm thick.
The materials used are wool, sisal and PET, ideal for their strength, with the possibility of creating geometric designs or borders.

Selvage, bound or fringe edge options available.

They are fully customisable in a wide variety of colours and shapes, and are available in square, rectangular and round formats.

With wool it is possible to recreate an "abrush" effect, the typical colour changes in raw wools.

A hand-tufted rug is made with a special artisanal technique whereby an operator manually uses a tufting hook or gun to follow a design previously traced on a base canvas. Thanks to the use of a special tool, designed specifically for creating rugs, the production process is much faster than the one involved in making hand-knotted rugs.

This type of rug has a fabric backing that covers a layer of glue used to hold the pile threads in place after they have been "shot" into the canvas. Consequently, you cannot see the pattern on the back of the rug.

The hand loom technique is used to hand make modern rugs by warp and weft weaving. As the word "loom" suggests, this procedure is carried out with the help of a loom which facilitates the process.

The rugs are produced using a vertical loom, while the threads are woven by hand. Many models are short-pile, which makes them soft and comfortable underfoot. The fibres which can be used in this process include: wool, viscose, acrylic, banana silk, silk, PET. There is also the option of selecting more than one type of fibre for making a rug.

Rugs have become an everyday object that is now a décor feature in all our homes, but how can we choose the best ones, given the huge range of types on the market?

Understanding how a rug is made can undoubtedly help us not only to choose one of the best, but also to get an idea of the lengthy process behind it and the work that goes into it.

Let’s start with the most important element, which is the “bones” of the carpet: the warp.

The history and tradition of Persian rugs is very ancient: the first Oriental artifacts date back to the V or VI century, while the art of rug-weaving arrived in Persia in the XI century.

For many years the most refined homes have been enhanced by the typical floral designs and motifs of classic Persian rugs, and these exquisite handcrafted products are still considered a precious lifetime investment
