How do I clean an antique rug?

Gentle surface brushing and professional specialist washing preserve the natural lanolin in antique wool. Avoid harsh chemical immersion. Regular low-suction vacuuming without a rotating beater bar prevents dust accumulation in the pile foundation.

Where were these rugs made?

Production centres span traditional weaving regions including Persia, Anatolia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Individual tribes and villages developed distinct regional palettes and geometric vocabularies. Nomadic groups and sedentary village workshops each contributed specific structural techniques that identify their origin.

Are these rugs durable for hallways?

Dense wool pile and sturdy cotton or wool foundations provide robust natural resilience for domestic traffic. Heavy village weaves withstand everyday friction remarkably well. Using a quality underlay prevents slippage and cushions the foundation against hard flooring surfaces.

What causes ivory wool to yellow?

Age, exposure to sunlight, and historical atmospheric soot naturally patina untreated sheep wool over decades of existence. This subtle darkening is an organic characteristic of genuine age. Professional washing can mitigate surface grime while retaining the warm character accumulated through generations.
