ROUTE 211—AMISSVILLE An Oriental rug can be a handsome addition to any room as well as a good investment. Deal only with a reputable dealer or good designer. First, find out whether the rug is used (under 50 years old ), a semiantique (over 50 years old), or an antique (over a hundred years old). Check its condition carefully by examining for holes, tears, frayed ends, rotting, repairs, worn-out spots, eveness of wear and evidence of insect damage. Also, be sure to lift up the rug and inspect the back. If physically possible, hold it up to the light. Feel the rug to see how much pile is left and whether it’s smooth and silky, or coarse. Another point to consider is how well an Oriental rug lies on the floor.
