Where should I place a runner?

These narrow formats suit hallways, corridors, and long entryways where linear floor coverings soften hard surfaces and guide movement through a home. Their sturdy wool construction handles daily foot traffic effectively while adding historic character to transitional architectural spaces.

How do I care for antique wool?

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating beater bar prevents dust accumulation within the pile. Professional cleaning by specialists in antique textiles ensures the natural dyes and wool fibres remain preserved. Keeping the piece out of direct, harsh sunlight protects the saturated ground colours from fading over time.

How do I identify a Kurdish piece?

Look for distinctive tribal motifs such as Memlinc guls, geometric shrub designs, and robust structural knotting techniques. Regional attributions often point towards Kurdistan, Bidjar, or Hamadan based on the specific wool texture and palette. The integration of Persian and Anatolian design influences also helps distinguish these traditional tribal workshops.

What does natural dye mean?

Natural dye refers to colour extracted from organic sources like roots, plants, and insects before synthetic chemical dyes became widespread. These materials create nuanced, varied tones across the wool pile that develop a soft patina. Experts value this traditional dyeing method for its depth and longevity.
