FAQs

Khamseh rugs are woven by a confederation of nomadic and settled tribes in southwestern Persia, traditionally characterised by geometric motifs, boteh patterns, and rich indigo and terracotta colour palettes.

These rugs are typically hand-knotted using locally sourced wool for both the pile and the foundation threads, often featuring hand-spun wool dyed with natural pigments such as madder root and indigo.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregularity of the weave, natural colour variations known as abrash, hand-spun wool characteristics, and traditional tribal motifs unique to the weaving region.

An antique rug can be used to ground contemporary minimalist furniture, add texture to hardwood floors, or serve as a focal point in a layered eclectic living space.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional organic washing when needed, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect natural dyes.
