How do I clean an old rug?

Professional specialist cleaning is essential for antique wool and cotton textiles to prevent dye migration and fibre degradation. Vacuum gently without rotary brushes to protect the pile. Avoid household detergents and excessive moisture, which weaken historical cotton foundations. Consult a conservator for specific maintenance requirements.

Where were these woven?

Production centres span the Caucasus region, including Karabagh, Daghestan, Shirvan, and Gendje. Each district developed distinct wool preparation methods and pattern repertoires. Weavers passed regional designs down through generations, creating recognisable local signatures in the floral lattices and border arrangements.

Are these suitable for hallways?

Longer runner formats suit high-traffic areas when paired with an appropriate conservation underlay. The durable wool pile withstands regular foot traffic while protecting the cotton foundation. Positioning runners away from direct, prolonged sunlight preserves the natural dye colours over time.

How do I date a piece?

Dating relies on examining the wool quality, dye palette, structural materials, and stylistic convention of the floral lattice. Nineteenth-century examples typically display characteristic handspun wool textures and saturated natural colours. Comparing border motifs and structural density against documented regional archives helps narrow the period of production.
