FAQs

Antique oriental rugs are hand-knotted floor coverings produced in regions such as the Middle East, Central Asia, and South Asia, often reflecting centuries-old tribal and regional weaving traditions.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed using hand-spun wool for the pile and foundation, sometimes incorporating cotton or silk, dyed with natural vegetable and mineral colourants.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregularity of hand-knotted fringes, natural variations in vegetable dyes, the density of the knot count, and the natural wear patterns on the wool pile.

An antique rug can anchor modern living spaces by providing textural contrast, grounding minimalist furniture, and adding warmth through traditional patterns and rich colour palettes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and professional specialist cleaning when necessary.
