PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Persian rugs are among the world's most coveted textiles, each reflecting the tradition of its region, from the intricate florals of Isfahan to the bold geometry of Heriz. Our cleaning approach accounts for the specific knot density, dye type, and wool or silk composition of each Persian piece. We work to lift embedded soil and bring back color while preserving the rug's character.
We discuss the condition, recommended treatment and expected outcome with you. The appropriate method is selected after inspection; not every treatment is suitable for every rug.
Persian Rug Cleaning in Astoria
Persian rugs are often colored with natural dyes, and each shade fades at its own pace, so a rug that has lain in strong light for years can look uneven. In Astoria one home in six is in a building put up in 2000 or later, and along the waterfront the newer buildings look across the river to Manhattan, with west facing windows that bring the afternoon sun deep into a room. Cleaning cannot return color the light has taken; it clears the soil from the color that is left. Turn the rug end to end each season and draw a shade at the brightest hour. Tell us which end lay nearest the window; natural dyes are stabilized before the wash.
