FAQs

Traditional runners originated in regions such as Persia, Turkey, and the Caucasus, where they were hand-knotted by nomadic and village weavers to insulate stone and timber floors in narrow corridors or beside large furniture pieces.

Authentic pieces are constructed using hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the foundational warp and weft threads, often dyed using natural botanical and mineral colourants.

Authenticity is identified through irregular knot counts visible on the reverse side, natural variations in hand-spun wool yarns, organic dye oxidisation, and hand-finished selvedges rather than machine-stitched edges.

Such pieces add texture and warmth to minimalist or modern hallways, kitchens, and transitional spaces, contrasting effectively against neutral wood or stone flooring.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional organic washing when necessary, and the use of a breathable underlay to prevent slippage and fibre wear.
