Wool braided rug: a guide to choosing the ideal model for your furnishing project

The wool braided rug is an excellent alternative to more traditional knotted rugs and is particularly suitable for those who wish to furnish their home with a furnishing accessory that combines aesthetics and functionality. This is especially true when this carpet is made to measure

Today’s post is devoted precisely to these artefacts and is a complete guide to the wool braided rug.

What are the properties of a wool braided rug?

The combination of the properties of wool and the particularities of the woven process gives the carpet unique characteristics in terms of both strength and aesthetics.

Wool, which is the most widely used natural fibre in the art of luxury carpeting , has very interesting properties. First of all, thanks to its compact structure and the density of its fibres, wool makes it possible to create carpets with an excellent thermal and acoustic insulation capacity. This means that a woollen product helps maintain a constant temperature in the home, reduces heat loss in winter and dampens noise and vibrations.

The woven processing also allows for a product with a compact structure, which is easy to clean and safe. The tightly woven fibres prevent dust from penetrating deep into the carpet, and regular vacuum cleaning is sufficient to keep the carpet in perfect condition.

The special processing also gives these carpets a great decorative ability. By being able to choose the colour palette, patterns and dimensions that best suit the room, a harmonious result can always be achieved that is consistent with the style of the furniture.

The wool braided rug is a very versatile furnishing solution that can be used in different rooms of the house. As it is a compact and lightweight textile, it is also easy to move and is an interesting option to use when one simply wants to renew the look of one or more rooms in the home.

What are the benefits of choosing a wool braided rug?

Furnishing with wool braided rug helps to give an original look to spaces. The fact that the fibres are not knotted or woven but are interwoven gives the end product a distinctive, almost three-dimensional texture. In this way, the carpet helps define the style and reinforces the personality of the room.

Thanks to this particular workmanship, various patterns can be created that create an original play of light and shadow. The carpet thus becomes the star of the space, whether it is placed on the floor or on the wall.

Wool braided rug can fulfil all the typical functions of a carpet: in large rooms they are perfect for delimiting different areas or defining transition zones, while in smaller rooms they bring a touch of colour or make a particular piece of furniture stand out.

Another characteristic of the wool braided rug? This type of artefact is the result of meticulous craftsmanship. The handwork ensures that each piece is unique and that no detail is left to chance. In particular, the wool fibres are first woven and then fastened together to give the carpet structure.

Guide to choosing the perfect wool braided rug

To make the right choice, several aspects of wool braided rug must be analysed. First of all, you need to understand which type of wool is most suitable for your needs. The main considerations are the type of animal the fibre comes from, the softness of the yarn, its strength and its lustre.

The type of processing also makes a difference. We have already mentioned that handmade carpets are high-quality and very durable products, but woven carpets made of industrially produced wool are also found on the market. The difference between these two products lies not only in the price, but also in the durability, the quality of the fibres used and the comfort of the product.

The colours and shape of the carpet are two of the factors that most influence the final appearance of the product. This choice is closely linked to the style you have decided to give your environment and your preferences. Natural wool colours are the most versatile solution, while fibres dyed in intense colours can create interesting colour accents. As far as shape is concerned, in addition to classic rectangular and square models, oval, round or more original shaped rugs can be considered, to be adapted to different space and furnishing requirements.

One last piece of advice. The size of the wool braided rug should be proportionate to the room in which it will be placed. In a large living room, for example, you can opt for a large piece that covers most of the surface, while in a bedroom a smaller model is preferable, to be placed at the foot of the bed.
