The Beauty of Sisal Rugs

Rugs are a great accessory to have in any home; they add an extra subtle touch of style and color, and even evoke a warm and inviting mood for any room. Additionally, there’s a large selection outside your usual wool rugs. Rugs made from natural fibers are starting to become quite popular with homeowners mainly for their versatility, beauty and eco-friendliness. Not to mention you can use them both indoors and outdoors.

But there’s one kind of natural fiber that stands out from the rest in the rug world and it’s called sisal. Made from a plant called Agave Sisalana, rugs are just one of the few things that come from this wonderful plant. Because of the coarse fibers that lend its strength and inflexibility, its cordage is valued making it ideal for manufacturing twine or rope. Even everyday items like paper, mattresses, rugs and cat scratching posts utilize sisal.

Along with its eco-friendliness, sisal rugs can generally be used inside and outside your home, as long as you take proper care of it. Like any rug, you have to make sure that it doesn’t soak any water or an abundance of moisture; mold and mildew can form if there’s way too much moisture in an area. The great thing about sisal rugs is that it requires little cleaning maintenance - vacuuming is all that’s needed. Regular cleaning will ensure the quality of the sisal fibers. As mentioned earlier, sisal won’t fare too well if placed in an area that has high humidity or moisture, which will cause the fibers to expand. If you do live in an area that has high humidity, its probably best to keep your sisal rug indoors.

Beautiful for both indoor and outdoor use, sisal rugs definitely bring a natural appearance to your setting. Ideal as an area rug for your living room, dining room, patio, sunroom or even your cabana, sisal rugs can be enjoyed by anyone, including pets. And with its tough, durable fibers and natural beauty, you can rest assured knowing that investing in a sisal rug is like investing in furniture - it’s for the long run.

How long does it take to dry a sisal area rug?

We had to take our area rug outside for a cleaning and now it is raining. The rug probably will remain wet for at least 36 hours. Are there steps we can take to prevent mildew from setting in?

Here's an area rug page:

Another tip: Allow your carpet to dry flat... dont roll it up or anything... maybe get a hook hanger and hang it by your dryer... so the heat can dry it a bit faster! :) thats all i got! good luck! :)

An Area Rug Will Revitalize Any Room In Your Home

Area rugs have always served as decorative home pieces since throughout the times of civilization. Some forms of area rugs such as animal hide rugs and crudely woven rugs were the first forms of flooring in recorded history. The area rug was considered a treasure among many families during ancient times.

The oldest surviving of all area rugs, which was called the "Pazyrk carpet", was found in 1949 during an archaeological unearthing in the Siberian region. Due to the frozen nature of the rug, the color and design of the rug was well preserved for thousands of years. It dates back to the 5th Century BC, where the Pazyryk carpet was considered an advanced work of Scythian art, which has exquisite details, perfectly shaped patterns, vibrant colors, and uses a hand-knotted technique that is still widely practiced today.

Prior to this discovery of this Pazyryk carpet, the very oldest known area rug was the King of Persia's renowned rug, which is a colossal area rug made of silk, wool, gold, silver, as well as many precious stones, and created using the hand-knotted technique. It dates back to around 550 BC, and it measured 400' by 100', weighing several thousand pounds. The King was said to have frequently strolled along the seemingly endless, beautifully bejeweled carpet during the winter months so to savor its many wonderful springtime scenes. These scenes were flowers in full blossom, birds in flight, ripe fruits, and had a broad "green meadow" border which is thought to be nothing but pure emeralds.

Area rugs today continue to have a rather significant role in the artistic traditions of many cultures around the world, from the geometrically intricate Ayacucho designs in the regions of Peru, and to those wildly contemporary sisal area rugs in Brazil, to the Persian rugs created in Iran.

Interior designers most often will recommend area rugs to be the easiest and simplest design element obtainable with which to totally recreate a room, or to revitalize already existing décor, while at the same time providing warmth, and depth, while adding floor protection.

When getting yourself a rug such as this you should remember to select area rugs that best suit your practical needs. In areas with a high amount of foot-traffic, consider darker colors, patterns, and sturdy fabrics. You should remember to keep light colored rugs in areas where the room is open and has an airy feel to it.
