Care Instructions
Hand-knotted rugs are valuable and require proper care to preserve their beauty and longevity. Here are essential care instructions:
1. Vacuum Regularly: Vacuum your rug regularly to remove dirt and dust. Use a vacuum with a brush less suction head to avoid damaging the fibers. Vacuum both sides if possible.
2. Rotate Frequently: Rotate your rug every 3-6 months to ensure even wear and prevent uneven fading from sunlight exposure.
3. Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub, as it can push the stain deeper into the fibers. Use a mild detergent solution for stubborn stains, testing it first on a small, inconspicuous area.
4. Professional Cleaning: Have your rug professionally cleaned every 1-2 years to remove deep-seated dirt and restore its vibrancy.
5. Protect from Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Use window coverings to protect your rug and move furniture periodically to prevent uneven fading.
6. Use Rug Pads: Place a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and provide extra cushioning, reducing wear and tear.
7. Avoid Moisture: Keep your rug away from damp areas to prevent mold and mildew. Ensure it is completely dry after cleaning.
By following these guidelines, your hand-knotted rug will remain a cherished and beautiful part of your home for many years.
