It is a covering of floor, which is mostly used in the rooms. It is a loom-woven or felted textile. It was introduced for the first time in central Asia between the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC. Turks made their first efforts to bring it in the European market. Firstly, it was only used to hang on walls or on tables. But with the passage of time, its usage altered, and now it is used on floors. Here two words, rug and carpet, are used for the same thing, but textile scholars differentiate them and define carpet as a large in size covering, used on floors, whereas rug is small in size covering, used on beds or tables.
For the sake of clarity, some textile scholars also distinguish between carpets and carpeting. In this usage, the latter are wall-to-wall, and are often wicker or tufted as "roll goods", most often in 12 foot widths but sometimes in up to 15 foot widths. In the real estate and home upgrading industries, a difference is made between carpet and rug. The carpet indicates a covering that is affixed to a floor, and the rug is a floor covering that is loose-laid, most often for ornamental ideas. There are several types of carpets, available in the market at different prices. A tufted carpet is manufactured with a gun, which adds the wool on a cotton fabric base, as opposed to a tangled carpet that is made by tying knots on a conventional cotton thread. Woven carpet is created on a loom, alike to woven cloth and is a cut mound. Woven carpet is normally the most expensive. A ColorTEC carpet is manufactured on a tufting machine, but is able of creating a design that is close to and looks like that of a woven carpet. Needle-felts carpets are manufactured by electrostatic magnetism of individual artificial fibers, forming an exceptionally durable carpet. A flatweave carpet is formed by intertwining vertical and horizontal threads.

A hooked rug is a simple type of rug, made by heaving strips of cloth, such as wool or cotton from the meshes of a durable stuff, such as burlap. Unlike woven carpets, embroidery carpets are not produced on a loom. Their outline is recognized by the functioning of stitches to a linen based cloth. Carpets are manufactured by several companies across the world by utilizing different materials and technologies. Carpets are available in a wide variety of designs, colors, shapes and sizes. Handmade carpets are most often liked in allover the world due to their fine and beautiful designing and durability. Contemporary centers of oriental carpet production are: Iran, Pakistan, India, Turkey, Northern Africa, the Caucasus, Nepal, Spain, Turkmenistan, and Tibet.
