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

A Kurdish Memling Gul runner is a hand-woven long carpet crafted by Kurdish tribal weavers, featuring characteristic stepped or hooked octagonal medallions known as Memling guls along its central field.

Antique tribal runners are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces display geometric asymmetry, natural variations in dye shades known as abrash, wool wear patterns, and flexible hand-knotted wool backings.

Place the runner in a hallway, entryway, or long corridor to add warmth, geometric contrast, and historic texture against timber or stone flooring.

Vacuum regularly without a rotary brush, rotate annually to balance foot traffic wear, use a high-quality rug pad underneath, and arrange professional hand-cleaning when required.
