FAQs

Khamseh rugs are traditionally woven by a confederation of tribes in South West Persia, known for employing rich wool, dark palettes, and distinctive geometric or striped motifs.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, frequently utilising natural vegetable dyes for the colour palette.

Authentication relies on examining the knot density, irregularities characteristic of tribal hand-weaving, the oxidisation of dark brown or black iron-based wool dyes, and natural abrash in the colour gradients.

An antique runner introduces texture and history to contemporary spaces, working effectively in hallways, entryways, or as a contrasting grounding element in minimalist rooms.

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