How do i tell a heriz rug from a karaja rug?

Heriz rugs generally display large, bold geometric medallions with prominent corner spandrels and sturdy structural weight. Karaja rugs often feature multiple small medallion repeats or distinct geometric box patterns arranged in a row. Both regional styles share a heavy village build quality using saturated natural dyes on wool foundations.

Where were baluch rugs made?

Baluch rugs were woven by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes inhabiting the borderlands of eastern Persia, alongside related groups in Baluchistan. These pieces frequently incorporate deep indigo, madder red, and dark brown wool. Weavers often utilised prayer designs or repeating box medallion patterns within compact formats.

How should i care for an antique wool rug?

Vacuum the rug gently without using a rotating brush bar to prevent snagging the hand-spun wool pile. Keep the textile out of direct sunlight to protect the natural dyes from fading over time. Professional cleaning should occur infrequently using traditional hand-washing methods suited for antique textiles.
