How do I clean a large red persian carpet?

Professional dusting and specialist low-moisture washing preserve the wool pile and dye integrity without saturating the cotton foundation. Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating power head prevents dirt accumulation between the knots.

Are these carpets suitable for heavy foot traffic?

Dense wool construction and sturdy cotton foundations allow these floor coverings to endure heavy daily use in hallways and living rooms. Placing a quality underlay beneath the piece reduces friction against the floorboards and prevents slip.

How do I identify a Heriz carpet?

Heriz pieces display sturdy geometric medallions, anchor motifs, and robust corner spandrels woven with thick wool yarns. The heavier knotting structure distinguishes them from finer, curvilinear city weaves produced in Tabriz or Kashan.
