Some Rugs Stop All Conversation

ByBunyaad

Some rugs are meant to stop conversation, others invite you to step inside and join in. Whatever conversation happens in Ernie and Jane’s living room happens around this gorgeous 9’x 12′ Beljik.

Ernie wasn’t really looking for a rug when he came to the Rug Room in Ephrata. As someone who enjoys the Arts Ernie didn’t just walk past the rug piles or ignored the rugs hanging on the walls. We encourage any customer, serious shopper or just curious, to touch the rugs to feel the richness of the fibers, take in the intricate designs and appreciate the artistry that goes into the making of each and every one of our rugs.

While flipping through the rug piles, just to take a look, it didn’t take Ernie long to discover this Beljik. What made him stop where the hallmark features of the Beljik, the remarkable colors of varying shades of deep reds and blues. On the Rug Types & Designs page we describe that these rugs are generally considered to be the finest of all tribal style rugs. They are made with finely-spun wool and knotted into intricate geometric patterns with complex borders.

Long story short, this unique Beljik with a larger than usual cream background and eye-catching center medallion caught Ernie’s heart and soon found a place in his home. It is now the centerpiece of the living room and enjoys many a conversation.

    Top 3 Concerns of Many Rug Customers

    ByBunyaad

    Amir explains bunyaad rugs.When working in the rug room, we hear many of the same fears over and over again and yet by the time most folks leave, they have some peace of mind. Are these some of your concerns?

    1. How will I ever decide from all of these rugs?

    I think this is my all-time favorite concern. Folks walk up to the rug piles with their dimensions and fabric samples in hand, leave out a heavy sigh and proclaim they don’t know how they’ll ever narrow down their choices with so many rugs in our rug room to choose from.

    Honestly, our rug piles can look daunting with over 25 different styles of rugs to choose from and sizes ranging from 2’x3′ to 10’x14′.

    With each customer, we explain that as we look together we will go through all piles that are of interest to them, starting from the top and flipping down to the bottom of the pile. As we bring the rugs back down again, ones that are of interest will get rolled and laid on the floor for customers to compare side by side.

    Modern Chic Meets Timeless Classics

    ByBunyaad

    Rugs at Parade of Homes

    When designing our homes we want the overall effect to be a pleasing whole. The wallpaper shouldn’t fight with the sofa fabric, the styles of furniture shouldn’t compete with each other. You put time, energy and money into creating an authentic space that will be lived in by real people. YOU and your family!

    Modern chic is relatively timeless as the basic design elements change only minimally and translate across decades. This is were Bunyaad rugs come in and add a timeless beauty and individuality that make your home personal and a most comfortable place to live in.

    The Dougs Say Goodbye and Farewell Pakistan

    ByBunyaad

    Doug and master designerWe enjoyed a great time in Pakistan. Everywhere we went we met friendly, helpful and incredibly hospitable people. It seemed like everyone wanted to shake our hands and give us a hug. On Sunday afternoon, while touring the old Lahore Fort, a number of people wanted their pictures taken with us. Contrary to what we hear and read in the media about Pakistan, it’s a great place to travel – safe, friendly, hospitable and very scenic.
