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 the East Village and Lower East Side

A rug that has been shampooed at home often looks dull again within weeks, because detergent left in the pile holds on to new soil. Before pickup, leave an Oriental rug as it is rather than giving it a quick wash: foam and spray cleaners push soil down toward the foundation, and some loosen dyes. We test the dyes first and then wash the rug through, so old detergent rinses out of the foundation along with the soil. Two in five homes here are walk-ups, many with narrow tenement stairs, and a room size Oriental rolls into a long, heavy bundle; tell us its length and the floor when you book, and we plan the carry.
