How do I care for an embroidered wool rug?

Protect antique wool and felt textiles by keeping them out of direct sunlight to prevent the fading of natural threads and dyed grounds. Gentle vacuuming with a mesh screen or professional textile cleaning helps maintain the wool and silk fibres without disturbing the delicate embroidery.

How do I distinguish regional styles?

Regional styles reveal themselves through distinct motifs, ground materials, and stitch techniques particular to their culture of origin. Central Asian Lakai pieces employ bold geometric patterns on felt or wool, while Portuguese needlepoint and Persian Rasht works utilise distinct floral and medallion vocabularies.

Can these hang on a wall?

Numerous pieces on this page, such as wall hangings, torbas, and panel fragments, were originally designed or adapted for vertical display. Using a non-invasive mounting method distributes the weight evenly across the wool or felt backing, allowing the textile to hang safely.
