1- CARPET FEATURES
The warp and weft of this carpet are cotton and the knots are wool yarn. The yarns are also produced entirely by hand using a spindle. The wool yarns used in the knots are dyed with madder, i.e., natural materials. For example, to obtain the color red, the wool yarns are boiled with rose petals and the yarn takes the color of the rose petals; yarns dyed in this way are called madder-dyed yarns. Carpets produced from madder-dyed yarns become brighter 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 life compared to Persian carpets. Finally, approximately 300,000 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 madder, carpet shampoo or detergent containing chemicals should not be used. If any liquid is spilled on this carpet, the affected area should first be thoroughly rinsed with a paper towel; then the affected area should be wiped with a cloth by lathering white bar soap. It should also be noted that immediate intervention 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 penetrates the warp and becomes much more difficult to remove. Finally, we recommend that you entrust the washing of this carpet to a professional carpet cleaner whom you trust and who washes hand-woven carpets.
