Bringing It All Together

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Kalaty Rug. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you are looking to makeover a room, the most impactful way to transform it is with a new area rug. It’s also the easiest way, and can completely change the atmosphere of an entire room. Kalaty Rug Corporation is a family business that has been setting the gold standard for area rugs for four generations because of its superior quality handcrafted rugs, combining unique color and innovative design in their wide range of selections. The Kalaty family Oriental rug business originated in the early 1900s in Iran under Mirza Kalaty’s grandfather, and in 1979 Mirza Kalaty founded the company in the USA. Today, Mirza and his five sons continue to helm the company.

I recently visited the Kalaty warehouse on Long Island, New York and viewed the variety of area rugs, as well as learn a bit about the different types. There are traditional patterns and more modern styles, and many are collaborations with famed persons and designers such as Paria Abdollahi and Carol Bolton, who base their inspiration on their travels and experiences. The spectrum of colors, patterns, dimensions, and unique qualities of the rugs covers a very broad range, and there is even an option to choose your own colors through the Kalaty Custom program if you would like an area rug to be woven to match a specific color scheme.

The variety of rugs available from Kalaty include designs made of wool and bamboo silk (Origins), designs that are hand carved to create three dimensional effects (Echo), reversible area rugs with a different texture on each side (Caspian), environmentally conscious area rugs made with un-dyed wool (Soumak Natural), and much more. I was able to really appreciate the quality of the workmanship of these beautiful Kalaty Rugs in person.

I found a few favorites that I especially loved, and since everyone has different taste, if these aren’t your style, there are hundreds of others that might be perfect for you.

I chose an area rug for my own home from the Oushak collections, because the warm, autumn-inspired shades of gold and umber seemed perfect to warm up my entry area. It is a woven area rug that is wonderfully thick:
