Threadbare Oriental Rugs

I'm not a big fan of rugs for practical purposes (the need to both sweep and vacuum) but I think they can really pull a room together.  I really love the look of a really worn, threadbare Oriental rug such as the ones featured below.  It's just so lived in ... you can imagine all the lives that have passed over it.  Threadbare is another word for "shabby" and it's no wonder because these beautiful rugs are the epitome of shabby chic.  Timeworn and elegant.  Precious, but not too precious to be used and enjoyed.  Beautiful!
