Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating from northwest Persia near the Heriz region, Karaja rugs are renowned for their geometric designs, typically featuring central diamond medallions flanked by latch-hook or floral motifs.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, dyed using natural vegetable dyes.

Authentic examples display characteristic geometric central medallionsoften a single diamond or a series of three distinct medallionsalong with stepped borders and a firm, hand-tied weave.

Small tribal rugs serve as functional accent pieces in hallways, entryways, or placed beside armchairs to add warmth, colour, and historical texture to modern schemes.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating brush, rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear, and use a padded underlay underneath to protect the foundation.
