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 West Village

Dark brown and black wool in an older Oriental rug often stands lower than the colors around it. The iron-based dyes once used for those shades slowly eat the wool, so outlines and small details wear down first; it is a sign of age, and washing does not reverse it. Corroded areas are fragile, and we point them out when we look the rug over before cleaning. With 42 percent of West Village homes in walk-ups or houses, many rugs here lie in rooms a century old; if your Oriental is that old too, run a hand over the dark areas before pickup, and if they feel brittle or have small holes, mention it on the tag.
