Genje rugs originate from the Caucasus region, historically produced by weavers in and around the town of Ganja, and are characterised by distinctive geometric motifs, star patterns, and rich natural wool dyes.

These pieces are typically handknotted using handspun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often employing symmetrical Ghiordes knots with natural vegetable and mineral dyes.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregular knotting density on the reverse, natural variations in dye colours known as abrash, hand-finished selvedges, and the specific wool quality characteristic of the nineteenth century.

An antique runner adds texture and heritage to contemporary spaces, functioning effectively in narrow thoroughfares such as hallways, corridors, or alongside modern minimalist kitchen islands.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialised cleaning when necessary, and the use of a high-quality rug underlay to prevent sliding and fibre wear.
