CARING FOR YOUR ORIENTAL RUG
Only a trained and knowledge rug cleaning specialist should clean your handmade silk or wool area rugs. However, there are things you can do as an owner of an Oriental, Persian, Tibetan or other high-end rug to provide basic cleaning maintenance that will protect your rug, keeping it looking great and that won’t have any damaging effects. Our main suggestion is regular vacuuming. Some owners are hesitant due to the delicacy of the fibers, and out of fear of reducing its softness, but gentle vacuuming on a regular basis will lift loose dirt, dust and grime that could eventually get stuck deep into the fibers of your hand-knotted rug. We caution to use extra care and to avoid using vacuums with brushes and other harsh bristles. You also want to be mindful of the delicate fringe and other edges of your rug to prevent lifting any seams or pulling on the skeleton fabrics of your rug. If you’re not sure whether your rug can withstand vacuuming, you can always ask our pros during the consultation or anytime throughout the cleaning process—we’d be happy to provide suggestions and recommendations.
Another thing to know when caring for your rug is how to treat a spill. As owners of such an expensive and irreplaceable rug, we know you do your best to keep potential stains away. However, we also understand that these rugs are artwork, and are meant to be seen and shown off. So, if you have a wine spill, a plant gets knocked over or a pet has an accident, there are steps you can take to treat it immediately before calling us to do a more thorough cleaning.
First, gently blot the stain using a clean, soft cloth and distilled water. If the stain is tough, or if distilled water is not on hand, you can use tap water or even club soda. Use just a small amount of liquid, since most Oriental rugs and other handmade rugs are most vulnerable to damage when wet. Never use store-bought carpet cleaners, as many of these are made with harsh chemicals that can cause stress to your fabric and remove the all-natural dyes, causing fading.
Finally, don’t try to scrub or press hard into stain, as this can sometimes cause the stain to set deeper in the fibers and create stiffness and splitting in the rug’s threading. You also want to watch your rug as it dries to make sure a ringed effect is not left behind. This can sometimes occur if you use too much liquid. If you do experience a spill, you can call us to set up an appointment right away. We will do our best to provide you with additional advice and support on how to care for the spill until we are able to make it to your home.

After a very thorough and complete assessment, our cleaning professionals will come together to create the safest, most effective plan to restore your rug to its natural beauty. We will discuss the details of the plan, and once you decide to move forward, our team will pick up your rug, free of charge, to take it to our state-of-the-art cleaning facilities.

When it comes to normal rugs and carpets that are made to replaced over the years, self-cleaning is a perfectly fine and affordable way to maintain the look and smell. However, when it comes to authentic, hand-made Persian, Indian and other Oriental rugs, it can spell disaster. Even higher-end modern rugs that are machine-made with the finest silks and wool can be vulnerable to the massive carpet cleaning machines and harsh chemical cleaners you will find at the store.
Cleaning these types of rugs without causing damage is a learned art. Each fiber needs individual attention, and each rug is unique in the types of methods and cleaning solutions that need to be applied. Most of these rugs are made using fibers that become vulnerable to damage when wet, and are colored with all-natural dyes that are easily stripped with average store-bought chemicals. We are trained on all of the tiny details that go into cleaning a rug, that you would never be expected to know, which is why we have been able to build a long list of clients who have trusted us to care for one of their most precious possessions.
