How do I choose the right size rug?

Measure your floor space to ensure furniture legs either sit entirely on the rug or comfortably off it, keeping pathways clear around the edges. Larger rooms accommodate room-size carpets, while narrow hallways require dedicated runner formats to balance the floor area.

Can these rugs handle heavy foot traffic?

Wool pile combined with sturdy cotton foundations makes these hand-knotted textiles resilient enough for everyday living areas. Using a quality underlay beneath the rug prevents slipping and absorbs impact, extending the working life of the pile.

How do I tell regional styles apart?

Caucasian pieces tend to feature bold geometric lattice designs and bright primary palettes, whereas Persian city carpets often showcase intricate curved floral medallions. Tribal weaves from Turkmenistan and surrounding regions display repeating guls and deep red tones rooted in nomadic tradition.

How do I care for a vintage rug?

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating beater bar to protect the hand-knotted wool pile from damage. Rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear across the surface from foot traffic and sunlight exposure.
