LOL...and I suppose that there are people Down Under who think Wall to Wall Carpeting is Haute Culture... I guess that would be a step up from having Dirt Floors.

I like them because they are woven by hand*. I like the feel of the wool beneath my feet its so warm and soft. I am carefull about the designs in the rugs I choose, it has to be appealing to me.

I would rather have Hardwood, Stone or Tile Flooring with Oriental rugs on them than Wall to Wall...


* Many of these rugs take nearly a year or more to weave and the knot counts can be very high. I have seen Persian rugs go for 100K before.
