The traditional Oriental Rug has graced floors of homes worldwide for many centuries. In contrast, modern day Oriental Rugs, are more revered for their dark, muffy color & long soft strands; which see prettier engulfing an entire J-clam & ass, than simply lying on tile or wood floor. These modern rugs are much softer, fluffier & friendlier than old school types. & with bit of luck & little rub in right place, silky strands become collecting ground for thick J-sap to spread, & one place where spilling things on carpet is both encouraged & applauded.
