Khorjin Original Hand-Woven Multi Root-Dyed Wool Rug 169x234 3.95 Square Meters - 5x8 ft

1- CARPET FEATURES

The warp and weft of this carpet are cotton and the knots are made of wool yarn. The yarns are also produced entirely by hand using a spindle. The wool yarns used in the knots are dyed with root dyes, i.e., natural materials. For example, to obtain the red color, the wool yarns are boiled with rose petals, and the yarn takes on the color of the rose petal; yarns dyed in this way are called root-dyed yarns. Carpets produced from root-dyed yarns gain a brighter appearance with use. On the other hand, this carpet is a top-quality carpet in terms of weaving density and is woven with the Turkish knot, also known as the double knot technique; thanks to this feature, it is more durable and has a longer lifespan compared to Persian carpets. Finally, approximately 600,000 hand knots were made in the weaving of this carpet.

2- CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Carpet cleaning varies depending on the material of the carpet and the type of dirt. Since this carpet is made of wool yarns dyed with root dyes, carpet shampoo or detergent containing chemicals should not be used. If any liquid is spilled on this carpet, first thoroughly rinse the affected area with a paper towel; then wipe the area with a cloth by lathering white bar soap. It should also be noted that immediate action is very important when something is spilled on the carpet. If the spilled liquid remains on the carpet for a long time without being wiped, 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 whom you trust and who cleans hand-woven carpets.
