FAQs

Yahyali rugs originate from the Kayseri region in central Anatolia, traditionally characterised by deep indigo fields, vibrant crimson accents, and geometric tribal motifs hand-knotted by village weavers.

Authentic pieces are constructed entirely from hand-spun wool for the pile, warp, and weft, utilising natural plant and insect dyes to achieve their rich, saturated colours.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of the hand-knotted foundation, the natural abrash or colour variation in the wool, traditional wool-on-wool construction, and wear patterns consistent with age.

These textiles serve as grounding decorative elements, adding texture, rich colour palettes, and historic character when placed on hardwood flooring in contemporary or traditional spaces.

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