Needlepoint rugs are different from some other styles of traditional handmade rugs, because they use an open-weave canvas as the base for a system of intricate colorful embroidery instead of weaving. While the practice of needlepoint dates back to ancient Egypt, the method was changed significantly in the 16th century in England and France. Taking inspiration from Turkish rugs, these needlepoint rugs usually feature delicate colors and imagery taken from the natural environs of Europe, such as floral motifs. Aubusson rugs are often confused with needlepoint rugs, but they are woven and not embroidered. These rugs were traditionally manufactured on looms in family workshops.
Both styles require delicate and experienced cleaning techniques.
