Wool Rug

In the 21st century, rugs are often used to cover hard floors. They are also used for floor decoration and to keep the floor of the room warm. The first rugs were invented by nomadic people who resided in Asia, centuries ago, mostly used for utilitarian purposes. Nomads were mostly used to herd sheep which left them with a handful of wools. Because they lived in cold areas they used creativity and to keep them comfy and warm. Unlike today, rugs were often used for multiple purposes such as table coverings, saddlebags, tent flaps, and many more.

The prayer rugs used by Islamic people became extremely popular as the religion spread all around Easter Europe. At the exact time, people started their trade through Istanbul and exported the wool rugs in Venice which helped the rugs gain wide popularity. Rugs as we know were not affordable to the normal family in America as they were extremely priced because they were handmade products. But after the mechanization started, the rugs became more affordable, and normal citizens could as well purchase them.
