FAQs

A Caucasian Fachralo prayer rug is a hand-woven woollen textile originating from the Fachralo village in the lower Kazak region of the Caucasus, distinguished by a central arch motif representing a mihrab.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheep wool for the pile, warp, and weft, coloured with natural dyes derived from plants and minerals.

Authentic examples feature a structured stepped or square mihrab niche, prominent geometric medallions, heavy woollen foundations, and a traditional colour palette dominated by red, indigo blue, and ivory.

This type of textile functions well as a central focal rug on timber floorboards, layered over plain neutral carpeting, or mounted on a wall as decorative fibre art.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush attachment, rotate periodically to equalize light exposure and wear, clear liquid spills immediately with clean water, and utilize specialist hand-cleaning services.
