Machine Made 

Feel the texture to be very smooth and you will know that it has been made in a Power Loom. Unlike Handloom rugs, which are woven by hand, these rugs are mass-produced in power looms in a carpet factory. The power looms are electrically operated and are controlled by a computer. The design is computer aided too with intricate patterns created by computerized tufting machines. While handmade rugs are created from natural fibers and have an uneven texture, rugs made in a power loom will mostly use synthetic fibers like nylon, art silk or polypropylene and are more uniform and perfect in terms of texture and execution. However, since they are artificial and essentially byproducts of convenience they don’t really have any appreciation value and can’t be categorized as a prized possession in any way.
