Where should I place a large carpet?

Large room-size carpets suit principal living areas, dining rooms, or reception spaces where furniture can sit comfortably on top of the field. Their generous dimensions help anchor an interior scheme. Ensure the room allows sufficient border visibility around the edges to appreciate the weaving style and proportions properly.

How do I care for wool pile rugs?

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush roll prevents dust accumulation within the wool pile. Professional cleaning by specialists in antique textiles preserves the natural lanolin. Keep the rug away from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent uneven fading of the natural dye stuffs across the surface.

What distinguishes an Oushak from a village rug?

Oushak carpets typically feature expansive fields with reduced, open floral designs and softer colourways intended for formal interiors. They often measure much larger than standard village pieces. Village rugs like Bergama or Melas display denser geometric structures, smaller formats, and more saturated regional palettes reflecting local tribal traditions.

Can I use a runner in a hallway?

Runners fit narrow spaces such as corridors, entryways, or alongside bedroom furniture. Their elongated proportions guide movement through a home while adding warmth to wooden floors. Utilising a suitable underlay prevents slipping and cushions the foundation yarns against hard subfloors.

How do I identify a prayer rug?

Prayer rugs feature a prominent pointed arch or mihrab shape at one end of the field, directing the orientation of the design. This architectural motif often encloses floral or geometric symbols specific to the weaving region. Unlike room carpets meant for central floor placement, these smaller formats were traditionally portable items for devotional use.
