Each piece is handpicked for its radiance, rich patterns, and color fastness.”

What Are Classic Red Rugs?

Classic rugs are meticulously hand-knotted, usually from wool, silk or exclusive blends—resulting in distinctive, high-quality originals shaped by centuries of tradition.

Oriental Rugs: Handmade rugs from Iran, Afghanistan, India, Turkey, China, Pakistan, or the Caucasus—often with iconic red highlights or fully saturated grounds.
Persian Rugs: World-renowned heritage, famous for their unique ruby, bordeaux, terracotta or brick reds—especially iconic in Qom, Tabriz, Kashan, and Nain rugs.
Village Rugs: Vibrant patterns and striking shades of red such as garnet, ruby, burgundy, and copper—traditional, durable, and intricately detailed.
Nomadic Rugs: Eye-catching designs with radiant red tones like brick, carmine, and terracotta—classic, robust, and richly detailed.

Modern Red Rugs – Powerful Designs for Every Setting

Our selection also includes modern rugs in on-trend red, ruby, rose, or carmine tones—featuring geometric, minimalist or solid designs, hand-crafted from wool, silk, viscose, or art silk. These pieces create striking highlights and work beautifully in contemporary interiors.

Material Guide: Wool, Silk, Viscose & More – How Materials Influence Red Rugs

Material determines the rug’s texture, color, luster, and practical performance:

Fine Sheep’s Wool: Matte, saturated, and long-lasting—the best for bordeaux, ruby, or terracotta reds and for high-use areas.
Wool with Silk: Offers glossy elegance, adds depth and iridescence—designs are more dynamic in light and shadow.
Wool with Viscose/Bamboo Silk: Creates modern, vivid reds—ideal for geometric and current styles.
Pure Natural Silk: Yields the most brilliant, luminous reds (ruby, pink). Ideal for wall art and collector’s pieces.
Animal-free Art Silk: Glossy, affordable, and vegan—especially attractive in deep reds with a contemporary feel.

Expert tip: Higher silk or art silk content makes reds richer and more light-reflective. Wool-heavy pieces are more matte and less iridescent under changing light.

Red Tones & Their Room Effect – Styling with Impact

Bordeaux, Brick Red: Noble, composed reds for libraries, lounges, dining rooms or Scandinavian schemes.
Ruby, Vermilion: Powerful centerpieces—pair with light wood, henna, grey or anthracite—for living rooms, hallways, and offices.
Carmine, Terracotta: Nuanced, lively shades for vintage, boho, oriental, or urban looks.

Styling tips: Red rugs go with light, beige or grey walls, wood, brass, black, navy, or petrol tones. Small rugs energize halls & kitchens; bold, dark reds make large rooms look grand and elegant.
