FAQs

Hand-knotted silk rugs have a rich heritage rooted in Middle Eastern and Asian textile traditions, where master weavers utilized fine silk threads to create intricate pictorial and geometric designs for royal courts and elite households.

Authentic pieces are crafted entirely from high-grade natural silk yarns for both the pile and the foundation warp and weft, featuring dense hand-tied knots that determine the intricacy of the pattern and the suppleness of the handle.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of the hand-tied knots on the reverse, the natural variations in the silk fibres, the presence of traditional vegetable or early aniline dyes, and the softness and drape characteristic of genuine silk.

These pieces function effectively as focal floor art in living spaces or studies, grounding contemporary minimalist furniture with rich texture and historical depth, or layered over larger neutral wool carpets for added visual interest.

Preservation requires gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, keeping the textile away from moisture, and employing professional specialist cleaning services when necessary.
