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 SoHo
Silk is thin and light for its size, and it creases and scuffs more easily than wool. Four in five SoHo homes are in buildings from before 1940, where rough plaster and old woodwork can mark a silk rug in passing, so it is rolled with its face protected and fully wrapped before it leaves the apartment. Some rugs sold as silk are something else. If the label says art silk or bamboo silk, tell us when you book; those rugs are usually viscose, which loses strength when wet and has to be identified before any cleaning. Between cleanings, keep silk away from the street door, where grit is heaviest.
