Rug Care

Persian rugs are made from natural sheep’s wool. Therefore, a Persian rug is a sustainable and durable product by nature. However, regularly cleaning your rug will support its longevity. Here are a few tips and tricks:

  • Vacuum-clean the rug in the direction of the pile and rotate it frequently. This will help to keep dust and dirt away. Fun fact: Did you know that 30 minutes of vacuuming burns around 110 calories? If you wish, you can see rug cleaning as a little workout.
  • Dust off your rug! To free your rug from possible dirt and particles, take it outside and "just beat it" in addition to vacuuming. This will keep your rug fresh and clean.
  • Rugs are sensitive to daylight, which means they might change color over time if exposed to strong sunlight daily. Keep that in mind if you wish to preserve the vibrant colors of your rug. If you would like to change the color of your rug, place it in a sunny spot.
  • If you spill something onto your rug and it dries, remove it promptly by scraping it carefully toward the middle of the spot. In case of a wet stain caused by beverages, do not rub it with a towel. Carefully absorb the liquid with paper towels.
  • If you’re unable to remove spots or stains from your rug, please use our professional washing and repair service.
