Upkeep of Antique Oriental Rugs & Carpets

Published by admin at 2:54 pm under Articles

Good antique rugs or even first-rate hand made rugs have a proven track record when it comes to investment. Like any other investment you may own, your house, antique paintings and furniture you must take care of them in order to help maintain their value. With rugs it is easier that you may think. Naturally one needs to keep it clean so we suggest vacuuming your rugs regularly based on how much traffic they get.

For example, a library rug that you walk on just a few times a day would not need vacuuming more than once or twice a month but your entry hall rug which gets the most traffic and dirt would probably need to be vacuumed once a week. Every two to three of years we suggest you have your rugs picked up and professionally cleaned. Also to help wear the evenly we suggest rotating your rug every time it come back from cleaning.

This simple but very effective measure will aid in adding many years to the life of your rug. When it comes to fraying, unraveling or holes we suggest getting immediate assistance. As in life, the more you put it off the worse off you may be in the long run. A small hole or wear area will grow and grow and before you know it a minor and inexpensive matter could evolve into an avoidable headache which can cost you hundreds even thousands more than if you had attended to it immediately.

Therefore we suggest that if you have any concerns or questions about your rugs please do not hesitate to call us. We will be happy to answer any questions you have.
