The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Khamseh rugs originate from tribal confederations in southwest Persia and are traditionally hand-woven by nomadic weavers. They feature geometric patterns, dark navy fields, multiple borders, and stylized animal motifs such as pecking birds.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool warp and weft foundation. The yarn is coloured using traditional dye processes, resulting in natural tonal variations known as abrash.

Authentic tribal carpets show flexible hand-knotted construction, slight geometric asymmetry, and characteristic repeating motifs like diamond medallions and small birds. The underside reveals clear hand-tied knots matching the top design pattern.

A large tribal rug grounds a room when placed beneath a central seating group or dining table, providing warmth and pattern against wooden or stone floors. The dark navy and terracotta tones complement modern neutral furnishings and layered textures.

Vacuum regularly using suction only to avoid disturbing the wool pile fibres or damaging the woven edge. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth, and use professional specialist cleaning for full restoration.
