Like most hand-woven rugs the value is based on rarity, age, and condition. A very rare antique piece can command a high price from collectors and enthusiasts, whereas a less rare piece is more moderately priced.
How do you clean an antique rug?
We recommend vacuuming on the lowest suction setting and to vacuum on both sides.
If there is a spill you can spot clean by blotting the area with a dry cloth to absorb as much liquid as possible. Then mix a small amount of mild soap or detergent with water and test the solution in a small area to ensure it doesn't cause discoloration. If there is none then using a sponge or cloth blot the area with the solution then blot with clean water to rinse then blot with a dry towel to absorb excess water.
For deep cleaning, we highly recommend utilizing professional services, and Jubin Rugs is the ideal choice for this. Our reputable team, with years of experience in the cleaning and repair of hand-woven rugs, ensures the highest standards of care and expertise.
