Traditional antique rugs are characterised by intricate geometric or floral motifs, often rooted in specific regional weaving traditions passed down through generations.

These pieces are typically constructed from hand-spun wool pile knotted onto cotton or wool foundations, utilising natural dyes derived from plants, minerals, and insects.

Authenticity is evaluated by examining the irregularity of hand-knotted foundations, natural dye variations, knot density per square inch, and wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique rug adds texture and grounding contrast to contemporary spaces, working effectively as a focal point over hardwood floors or layered on neutral broadloom carpets.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotary brushes, professional specialist cleaning, protection from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and avoiding excessive moisture.
