The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Afshar rugs are hand-woven textiles created by the nomadic and semi-nomadic Afshar tribe of southern Iran, renowned for geometric designs and repeating stylized motifs such as the boteh.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile on a wool or cotton warp and weft, utilizing natural vegetable dyes for rich pigmentation.

Authentic 19th-century Afshar rugs feature a wool foundation, hand-knotted construction, multiple geometric border bands, and saturated natural dye tones including indigo, madder, and terracotta.

A hand-knotted tribal rug provides texture and focal depth over neutral hardwood flooring, complementing both minimalist contemporary furnishings and dark timber antiques.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar, rotate the rug annually to balance light exposure and foot traffic, and arrange professional specialist cleaning using pH-neutral methods.
