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 Gramercy & Flatiron
Not everything sold as silk is silk. Viscose, also sold as art silk or bamboo silk, looks much the same when new but spots, yellows and mats when it gets wet, so we identify the fiber before anything else and choose the cleaning to suit it. If the label on the back names viscose, rayon or bamboo, tell us when you book. Real silk has its own weak points: it bruises where chair legs and shoes rub it, and water rings it, so keep it away from the dining table and blot spills with a dry white towel instead of rubbing. In Gramercy & Flatiron, where walk-ups are about one in ten homes, a silk rug from a walk-up is carried down rolled loosely and never folded.
