How to Choose the Perfect Persian Rug in Perth
🌟 Bring Timeless Persian Art into Your Perth Home
A Persian rug is more than a floor covering — it’s a statement piece that tells a story. In Perth, where homes blend modern coastal styles with classic elegance, a hand-knotted Persian rug can transform any room into a warm, sophisticated space.
Whether you live in Fremantle, Applecross, or the Swan Valley, finding the right Persian rug means understanding the art, quality, and design that suit your home and lifestyle.

🧶 1. Understand What Makes Persian Rugs Special
Persian rugs are handwoven masterpieces originating from Iran, crafted using centuries-old techniques. What sets them apart:
- Hand-knotted craftsmanship – each knot is tied by hand, not machine.
- Natural materials – wool, silk, or cotton that age beautifully.
- Authentic dyes – rich colours from plant-based and mineral dyes.
- Unique patterns – no two rugs are ever identical.
Every Persian rug at Persian Rug Warehouse WA is a genuine handmade piece, carefully sourced to ensure authenticity and quality.
🛋️ 2. Match Your Rug to Your Room & Lifestyle
When choosing a rug for your Perth home, consider how you use the space:
| Room | Recommended Rug Type | Local Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Living Room | Medium to large wool rug | Choose darker tones — they hide Perth dust and foot traffic. |
| Dining Room | Durable hand-knotted rug | Allow at least 60cm around the table for chairs. |
| Bedroom | Soft wool or silk blend | Go for calming tones to match relaxed coastal interiors. |
| Hallway/Entry | Flat-woven runner | Handles sand and grit from outdoors. |

🎨 3. Choose Colours and Patterns that Reflect Perth’s Style
Perth interiors often feature light colours, timber floors, and open-plan layouts. Persian rugs add depth and texture to these spaces:
- Modern homes: geometric or minimal Tabriz designs.
- Classic federation homes: Kashan or Isfahan rugs with traditional medallion patterns.
- Coastal interiors: muted blues, ivory, or grey tones to complement light décor.

📏 4. Get the Right Size and Placement
The most common rug-buying mistake is going too small. A rug should anchor your furniture, not float in the middle of the room.
- Living rooms: Front legs of furniture should rest on the rug.
- Bedrooms: Extend at least 60cm beyond the bed frame.
- Dining areas: The rug should fit all chairs, even when pulled out.
Our team at Persian Rug Warehouse WA can help you measure and visualize rug placement in your home.

🪡 5. Check for Authenticity & Craftsmanship
Before buying, make sure your rug is the real deal:
- ✅ Is it hand-knotted (not machine-made)?
- ✅ Does it include origin and quality details?
- ✅ Is it made of natural materials (wool or silk)?
- ✅ Are the dyes natural and even in colour?
At Persian Rug Warehouse WA, we guarantee every Persian rug is authentic, handmade, and ethically sourced — direct from artisans across Iran.
🌤️ 6. Caring for Your Persian Rug in Perth’s Climate
Perth’s dry summers and sunny conditions can affect rug fibres. Here’s how to keep your Persian rug beautiful for decades:
- Rotate it every 6–12 months to prevent uneven fading.
- Avoid direct sunlight when possible.
- Vacuum gently once a week (avoid rotating brushes).
- Use a rug underlay for protection.
- Have it professionally cleaned every few years.
