How do I choose the correct length?

Measure your hallway while leaving a consistent border of exposed flooring around the perimeter of the rug. Ensure doorways can swing open freely over the pile height of the chosen runner. Account for standard furniture placement and radiators so the carpet lies flat without awkward bunching along the passage.

Are these carpets suitable for heavy traffic?

Traditional wool construction combined with a dense foundation provides natural durability suited to corridors and entryways. The resilient fibres withstand daily foot movement while maintaining their structural integrity. Regular rotation distributes wear evenly across the length of the runner, extending its functional lifespan in busy areas.

How do I clean an antique runner?

Gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush roll removes surface dust and grit from the wool pile. Professional specialist cleaning is recommended for deeper maintenance to protect natural dyes. Avoid harsh chemical treatments and excessive moisture, which can damage the cotton foundations and wool fibres.

How do I identify different regional styles?

Examine the specific geometry, medallion layouts and border motifs, which often point to distinct weaving groups such as Heriz, Hamadan or Kurdish traditions. Regional palettes and structural characteristics provide further clues to provenance. Comparing knot density and foundation materials helps separate village productions from larger workshop pieces.
