Wicker carpets with pile are usually designed to decorate floors. They perform several functions in the interior: they are decorative elements, insulate the floor surface and soundproof. In the room where the carpet lies on the floor, there is a feeling of warmth and home comfort. Recently, long-naped carpets, which even have a separate name - shaggy (from the English shaggy - shaggy), have been especially popular with designers.
What are the carpets
Carpets are made both from natural materials: silk, wool and cotton, and from synthetic threads: acrylic, nylon, polyester and polypropylene. Natural carpets are more durable, while synthetic carpets are easier to care for. The basis of natural carpets is a dense cotton fabric, while synthetic carpets are rubber or vinyl. The price of the carpet depends not only on the material of manufacture, but also on the height of the pile, the longer it is, the more expensive the carpet will be, ceteris paribus.
Disadvantages of Long-Haired Carpets
Perhaps the main disadvantage of such a carpet will be its cost, because the price of 1 square meter of wool carpet with an average pile starts at 800 rubles, while a square meter of shaggy carpet will cost you less than 3000 rubles.
But most often they are made from a mixture of natural and synthetic yarns, which allows you to create the most intricate color combinations and extend the life of such products. In addition, long-pile carpets are not allergenic, have dirt-repellent and antistatic properties.
Of course, they are not suitable for hallways and walk-through places in the house - in these cases, the pile will very quickly take in and will be wiped off and a beaten path will form on them. But in a spacious living room, where there is little furniture or in a cozy bedroom or children's room, the long-nosed ones will be most welcome.
In the living room, shaggy carpets can even be placed on top of a plain floor lint-free carpet flooring, they look very impressive.
