Quilts and Oriental Rugs
As quilts are to blankets, Oriental rugs are to carpets. The connection: they are both the elite within their species. Anyone can have a blanket, but a quilt is not just a blanket, its a masterpiece. And Oriental rugs share this in common with the quilt. Oriental rugs are not just another rug or carpet, it is a masterpiece. Most Oriental rugs have been handmade with many hours of time and labor poured into it. Quilts and Oriental rugs both mainly provide women with work. During the old-fashioned Quilting Bee, you’d find women gathered together all working together on this art, both accomplishing a task and enjoying time with one another. The Amish still gather in homes today for this same cause. Women overseas work together to make Oriental rugs. Thus providing them with the gift of work.
Abingdon Rug Outlet wants to share the creative expression of Oriental rugs with you.
