FAQs

Khamseh rugs are traditional tribal weavings produced by a confederation of diverse tribes in southwestern Persia, typically characterised by distinctive geometric patterns, rich madder red backgrounds, and stylised animal or floral motifs.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using handspun wool for both the pile and the foundation structure, often utilising natural vegetable dyes such as madder root for reds, indigo for blues, and weld for yellows.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of hand-spinning, the presence of natural dye variations known as abrage, specific tribal knotting techniques, and wear patterns consistent with age.

A long tribal runner adds warmth and texture to transitional or contemporary spaces, working effectively in narrow hallways, galleries, or along narrow passageways where it introduces grounded colour and historical depth.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialised cleaning when necessary, the use of a breathable rug underlay, and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to protect natural dyes.
