FAQs

Khamseh rugs are crafted by a confederation of nomadic and settled tribes in southwestern Persia, traditionally characterised by distinctive geometric motifs, dark blue fields, and stylised bird or animal figures.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often featuring wool or sometimes cotton warps and wefts dyed with natural vegetable colorants.

Authenticity is assessed through irregularities in the weave, natural abrash colour variations in the wool, hand-spun yarn characteristics, and traditional tribal iconography rather than machine-made precision.

An antique rug introduces texture and historical contrast when placed on neutral hardwood floors, anchoring modern or minimalist furniture layouts with rich colour and cultural heritage.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing by textile conservators, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect natural dyes.
