A good quality hand tufted rug looks just as good as a hand knotted rug and no one would really know the difference unless they examined the back of the rug thoroughly. The great thing is that hand tufted rugs cost only a fraction of the price of hand knotted rugs. This is because it takes a lot less time to make them. Imagine how long it takes to knot each strand by hand. Tufting does this faster and looks as good. There is a large range of hand tufted area rugs in all sizes and colors to choose from.
