Hand-knotted and 100% wool; Flokati rugs certainly are comfortable. This type of area rug was originally designed by the Greeks during the 5th century, but we’re not going to go that far back, as these rugs are used in a lot of people’s home now days. It can be officially stated that Flokati rugs are used more inside of Greek homes than other ones, but people from all different types of religions use this beautiful styled rug.
Flokati rugs have an exotic, fur-like body with a thick backside. Their static resistance definitely helps when there are certain electronics around such as computers and televisions. There will be no harm done to any electronic devices.
People who purchase this style of rug mainly look forward to the plush comfort when their feet hit the upside part of the rug, but they are also very decorative. If there are any cold tiles in your home, Flokati rugs can withstand the chill due to the backside being very durable, and this is a main reason why this area rug is so popular. Flokati rugs will protect any hardwood floor while filling the elements of an entire room up with the proper décor.

Flokati rugs are so luxurious feeling and looking, without making a big hole in your wallet
Flokati rugs look great in the kitchen, family room, living room, bedroom, and even the patio. If there is a place in your home that looks bare, and you want an ultra soft rug that will add color and comfort than there shall be no looking back, because this rug is definitely right for you. Best of all, you can move these rugs to another room, or change them to a different color or style if the mood isn’t right anymore, or if you want to change them due to the seasons changing. There is no permanent setting, and there are plenty of different styles to choose from.
Flokati Rug Perks
One of the nice perks of having a beautiful Flokati rug in your home is complementing a wooden floor. A lot of homeowners have wooden floors and they are bare, which don’t necessarily look boring, but they can be covered up. Placing a Flokati rug on top of wood really complements the setting of the room, and they also protect them really well. Unlike carpeting, you can put area rugs on your walls to add to the décor in your home, and even though other rugs can pull it off, Flokati rugs definitely pull closer to the top.
Cleaning Flokati Rugs
While carpeting can stain even if you attempt to clean them out, Flokati rugs can be washed with water and there will be no problems. The rug will maintain its beautiful and vast array of colors while not losing any of the material due to scrubbing. If you are one who enjoys going barefoot around the house, then you might stay inside a bit longer than you usually do because the plush comfort underneath the soles of your feet will not want to leave the area.
Above all, Flokati ‘area’ rugs are as elegant as elegant can be, and it was no surprise that back in the 5th century, people used this material primarily as clothing. If one were to place a Flokati rug around their shoulders when the weather is cold, they’d probably take it over a sweatshirt any day. Stroke your fingers through the long fibers of these comfortable rugs, you won’t want to stop, and the colors just add to the beauty of them.
