FAQs

Traditional Persian-style wool rugs originate from centuries-old weaving traditions in the Middle East and Central Asia, where intricate medallion and floral motifs were developed by master artisans using regional symbolism.

Authentic rugs are constructed primarily from natural sheeps wool for the pile and foundation threads, often hand-knotted onto cotton or wool warps using vegetable and natural mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces can be identified by examining the irregularities in the knot count on the reverse side, the natural variance in hand-spun yarn colours, and the presence of traditional selvedges and fringe.

A large traditional rug can be integrated into modern spaces by anchoring minimalist furniture arrangements, creating visual warmth against polished wooden floors, and contrasting with neutral upholstery.

Preservation involves regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional organic washing every few years, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight to prevent dye fading.
