Rug pricing

Some beautiful modern rugs are being made today; others, though in fashion at the moment, will be eyesores in a few years' time.

It takes a person of rare discernment and taste to choose the best and most durable from any current vogue because your judgment is colored by the fact that it is a fashion; that other people are buying it and thinking it wonderful.

The amount of money that must go into a good floorcovering shouldn't be spent on a mere novelty. But don't be frightened into buying plain carpets if your house for practical or decorative reasons needs pattern on the floor.

Just choose those patterns with care, measur­ing them by the four basic principles—color, form, scale and texture.
