• Check out the Back of the Rug- One of the best ways to differentiate between a handmade carpet and a machine-made rug is to check the backside of the carpet. If you see that the weaving knots are not perfectly uniformed, it is undoubtedly a handmade rug. Besides, if you know the back of the handmade carpet, you can distinguish each knot. Machine-made rugs are, on the other hand, made by big looming machines. So they are more uniformed and even.
• Fringes of the Rug- In authentic handmade rugs, fringes are the extension of the body. The fringe on the handmade rug is made from the warp of threads. But in machine-made rugs, fringes are sewn later.
• Edges of the Rug- On a handmade rug, edges are overcast by hands, but boundaries are stitched in a machine-made rug.
• Color Variations- In hand-made rugs, you can see color variations as the entire process is manually done, even the dyeing process. So each batch of wool might have slight color variations.
