The first and foremost step towards maintenance and restoration of your rugs is traditional hand washing. It is preferred over using technical machinery as cleaning a rug is no less than bringing an object of art back to life.
How to wash your handmade rug?
Regular maintenance and cleaning of rugs is essential to keep them dirt and spill free. You can hand wash your rug with the help of a sponge or soft-brittle brush and use a cleaning solution to form lather on the rug, leaving it for a few moments before rinsing and drying. Depending upon the fibres of your piece, there are various home cleaning methods that you can adopt but before you get started, it is advisable to assess your rug. Antique and delicate rugs are best left in the hands of professionals as they are expensive to replace and have sentimental value. So it always pays to invest in their care to keep them in exact condition.
