PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Persian rugs are among the world's most coveted textiles, each reflecting the tradition of its region, from the intricate florals of Isfahan to the bold geometry of Heriz. Our cleaning approach accounts for the specific knot density, dye type, and wool or silk composition of each Persian piece. We work to lift embedded soil and bring back color while preserving the rug's character.
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.
Persian Rug Cleaning on the Upper West Side
Apartments facing Riverside Drive look west over the Hudson, and more than a quarter of Upper West Side homes sit in buildings with 20 or more floors, where the afternoon sun reaches deep into a room. Persian rugs fade under that light from the window side first, and faded color cannot be restored by cleaning; rotating the rug end for end every year or so keeps the change even, and a sheer curtain drawn in the late afternoon slows it. Persian rugs also vary by region, from an Isfahan on a fine silk foundation to a thick Bakhtiari village rug, and each reacts to water in its own way. Knowing the origin helps, so share it when you book if you have it, along with any spot where the color has already run.
