2-CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Carpet cleaning varies depending on the carpet material and the type of dirt. Chemical carpet shampoos or detergents should not be used to clean this carpet. If any liquid is spilled on the carpet, first rinse the affected area thoroughly with a paper towel; then, lather a bar of white soap and wipe the area with a cloth. It is also important to remember that immediate action is crucial when something is spilled on the carpet. If the spilled liquid remains on the carpet for a long time without being wiped away, the stain will penetrate the warp and become much more difficult to remove. Finally, we recommend that you entrust the cleaning of this carpet to a professional carpet cleaner you trust who specializes in hand-woven carpets.
