Hand woven with the finest materials including wool and silk, a single Persian rug can often take years and sometimes decades to create. A high-quality Iranian carpet can cost tens of thousands of dollars, with antique rugs fetching even higher prices

The prices can vary, from less than $100 for a 2-by-3-foot accent rug to hundreds of thousands for the best antiques. "An area rug, 8-by-10, a new one, will average $1,400 to $2,200, and go up to $20,000," says Bahman Rais Dana. "For $1,600 to $1,700, you get a very good-looking rug that lasts forever."

Persian rugs can be good investments if you make the right choices. Those who own an antique Persian rug passed on from previous generations will vouch for its durability. While Oriental rug antique collectors will tell you, a diligently chosen Persian rug is unlikely to decrease in value.

80-100 years old
While any rug older than 80-100 years old is considered antique, the lesser-known range between antique rugs and vintage rugs 50-80 years old are labeled semi-antique. Any rug 20 years or older can be listed as vintage, but the typical consensus is vintage applies to the range between 20-50 years old.
