How do I clean an antique rug?

Gentle surface brushing and professional specialist washing are recommended for antique textiles to protect natural wool fibres and dyes. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners and excessive water immersion which can weaken the historical foundation of the piece.

Can I use these rugs on heated floors?

Natural materials like wool and cotton tolerate moderate underfloor heating well because they breathe naturally. Ensure you use a breathable underlay to allow proper air circulation beneath the textile.

What is a prayer rug used for?

These smaller formats were traditionally used for daily Islamic prayers, serving as a clean portable space for prostration. Today they function effectively as decorative wall hangings or accent floor pieces due to their striking central niches.

How do I identify tribal designs?

Tribal designs typically feature geometric medallions, stylised animals, and repeating boteh motifs rather than courtly floral scrolls. Specific border arrangements and colour palettes often point directly to the producing tribe or borderland region.
