01UNDERSTANDING YOUR PIECE

Care begins with
understanding.

Oriental rugs represent centuries of artisan tradition. Our specialists understand the unique construction, dye chemistry, and fiber composition of each origin, from Tabriz and Isfahan to Oushak and Beni Ourain. Every oriental rug we receive is assessed individually and cleaned using methods calibrated to its specific weave, age, and condition. We remove embedded soil, restore vibrancy, and preserve the integrity that makes each piece irreplaceable.

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.

Oriental Rug Cleaning in DUMBO

Factory and warehouse buildings were built with tall windows to light the work inside, and in DUMBO's converted ones that light now crosses the floor and whatever lies on it. Prewar buildings hold 26 percent of the area's homes, the old factory conversions among them. Direct sun fades an oriental rug from the window edge inward, and washing cannot bring back dye that light has taken. Sheer curtains on the brightest panes slow the change, and swapping the rug's two ends once a season spreads whatever fading there is. A rug already paler at one end is worth mentioning when you book. Each color is checked for bleeding before water touches it.
