YOUNG CONTEMPORARY HOME DECO
NO PRODUCT WITHOUT A STORY OR HISTORY. OF ALL HOME DECORATION PRODUCTS, RUGS PROBABLY HAVE THE RICHEST AND LONGEST HISTORY.
THE ORIGINS OF RUGS AND THE REASONS WHY THESE WERE MADE ARE QUITE DIVERSE. YOU COULD TRACE THEIR ORIGINS BACK TO CENTRAL ASIA AND EUROPE.
IN CENTRAL ASIA FIRST TRACES OF THE ART OF RUGMAKING GOES BACK TO THE 2ND MILLENIUM BEFORE CHRIST. WE CAN IMAGINE RUGS WERE BEING USED IN TRIBAL COMMUNITIES AS THESE WERE EASY TO TRANSPORT AND TO BE USED FOR FLOORING PURPOSES. IT IS ALSO BELIEVED RUGS WERE BEING USED DURING CEREMONIAL GATHERINGS. THIS TRADITION EVOLVED INTO A REAL ART FORM THAT STILL EXISTS TODAY.
IN EUROPE THE FINE ART OF RUG MAKING ORIGINATED DURING THE HELLENISTIC TIMES. RUGS OUT OF THE CAUCASUS AND LATER CENTRAL EUROPE GOT WIDELY DISTRIBUTED ALL OVER EUROPE AND CENTRAL ASIA. DURING THE MIDIEVAL TIMES THIS FINE ART OF MAKING TAPESTRIES BECAME WIDELY POPULAR AMONG NOBLE FAMILIES. TAPESTRIES HAD BOTH A DECORATIVE, AS WELL AS AN INSULATION PURPOSE. THE FLEMISH TAPESTRY WEAVING ART WAS ON THE FOREFRONT OF THIS FABULOUS CRAFTMANSHIP.
