The foundation of real Persian floor rugs is made with premium-quality and 100% pure cotton, wool, or silk, and sometimes with other rare fibers like camel or goat hair. Their pile is either made of 100% silk, sheep’s wool, or blends of silk and wool. These rugs are dyed using plant-based, insect-based, and mineral dyes.

Authentic rugs have irregular human-made knot patterns on their backside and their fringe is the natural continuation of the wrap threads lengthwise. These wrap threads run across the entire foundation of the rug. The edges of these rugs are also somewhat uneven because they are hand-wrapped. Another major indicator is the foundation material; authentic rugs are made with wool, silk, or cotton. Additionally, they have organic color variations.

Oriental rug refers to a rug category which includes all sorts of hand-knotted rugs and carpets with an Asian origin. Persian floor rug, on the other hand, is a particular type of oriental rug which is exclusively from Iran/ Persia and all or most of its styles have been named after Iranian regions such as Isfahan, Kashan, Heriz, and Tabriz.

Their at-home care includes gentle vacuuming. It is very important to use only the soft brush attachment or the smooth floor tool with the lowest setting. Besides, you must proceed in the pile’s direction and never against it, so as to avoid snagging. For dealing with spills, just blot with a clean paper towel or a white cloth and avoid rubbing. Rotate the rug regularly and protect from direct sunlight.

The standard measurements available for these rugs are 2’x3′ and 4’x6′ (small mat-sized rugs for entryways), 5’x8′ and 6’x9′ (medium-sized rugs for standard living rooms, dining rooms, and for placement under queen beds), 8’x10′ and 9’x12′ (large area rugs for spacious living rooms, dining rooms, and king beds), and over 10’x14′ (oversized rugs for grand and luxurious spaces). Runner style elongated rugs are also available.

To clean silk Persian rugs, gently vacuum using low suction and a brushless attachment to remove dust. For spills, blot the affected area with a clean, dry white cloth without rubbing. Avoid harsh detergents, steam cleaning, and excessive water, as these can damage delicate silk fibres and dyes. For stubborn stains or deep cleaning, hire a professional rug cleaner experienced with silk rugs.
