PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Silk is among the most luxurious and delicate rug fibers. Its luminous sheen and fine texture require cleaning methods that avoid excessive moisture, harsh chemicals, and mechanical agitation. Our silk rug specialists use precision low-moisture techniques and pH-balanced solutions formulated specifically for silk fibers, restoring their natural luster without compromising structural integrity or color brilliance.
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.
Silk Rug Cleaning in the East Village and Lower East Side
Silk fades in sunlight faster than wool, and its sheen dulls with the color. In the East Village and Lower East Side, 16 percent of homes sit in towers of twenty floors or more, and an upper floor with open views lets the sun reach well into a room for much of the day. Turn a silk rug every few months and draw a sheer blind in the brightest hours. Silk also marks where it is rubbed, so blot any spill before pickup with a dry white cloth and leave it at that. Fading that has already happened will not wash back; the cleaning, done with very little moisture, removes the soil that dulls the color that remains.
