How to Buy Area Rugs Wholesale

Area rugs are available in a variety of styles, fabrics, and colors. Some area rug styles, such as Persian or Oriental, are named for their region of origin. In contrast, contemporary area rugs are named for the unusual shapes and bright colors incorporated into the contemporary décor style. Shag rugs and braided rugs are additional examples of popular area rug styles. Functional area rugs include hall runners, children's rugs, and novelty rugs.
