That\u2019s a tall order to fulfill, and not everyone knows exactly where to begin to find the answer. However, we think we have the perfect solution: a palace rug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s dive deeper. Some homeowners will choose to place several smaller rugs in their space. This serves to separate seating areas from dining spaces. It also can designate a home office, reading nook, or other particular place within this larger space. But, this can feel disjointed if not done correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, some would prefer to have one cohesive floor covering. So, they\u2019ll forgo the smaller rugs and use a relatively large 9&#215;11 or 10&#215;14 option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, others may decide to go even larger. And for these homeowners, this is where palace rugs come into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/rugs\/size-name\/oversized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-67.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What is a palace <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/\" title=\"rug\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">rug<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A palace invokes the image of an expansive room. It may be a king\u2019s domain, a Cinderella-like ballroom, or a spacious library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likewise, a palace rug will be an enormous size. At Rug Source, we consider sizes like 12 x 17, 11 x 21, 16 x 11, 18 x 32, and various sizes in between to be palace rugs. By definition, these rugs were often created for aristocrats and noblemen for use in their manors, estates, and other palace-sized living spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Are they old or new?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Palaces are often thought of solely within a historical context. Does this mean that all palace rugs available today are vintage or antique?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not necessarily, and our goal today is to dispel that myth. While many of these rugs on the market today will be from years gone by, that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re older than 100 years old. Remember, that\u2019s the technical definition of an antique: to be at least 100 years of age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And indeed, weavers are still utilizing these sizes, creating new palace rug masterpieces today. They recognize that there is a market for those who still desire the look of a palatial-sized rug or have a space large enough to use one in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/rugs\/primary-color\/green\/page\/2\/size-name\/10x14,oversized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/rugsource.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Rug-Source-Template-68.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What materials and patterns are used?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like their smaller counterparts, palace-sized rugs come in many varieties, patterns, and styles.
