Handmade Carpets
Our handmade carpets are crafted using traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. Each piece is unique, featuring intricate patterns and natural materials like wool, silk, and cotton. These carpets originate from renowned weaving regions including Persia, Turkey, and the Caucasus, ensuring cultural authenticity and exceptional quality. The weaving process involves interlacing warp and weft threads on a loom, creating durable and visually striking designs that enhance both traditional and modern interiors.
Kilim Rugs
Kilim rugs are flat-woven without a pile, using techniques like slit weaving and dovetailing to create geometric patterns. These lightweight, reversible rugs originate from Turkey, Afghanistan, and Iran, made from soft wool with natural dyes. Their versatility makes them ideal for walls, floors, or decorative accents, offering a blend of functionality and artistic heritage that complements various interior styles.
Rug Cleaning
Our hand-cleaning service restores rugs to their original condition using specialist techniques tailored to material type. Silk rugs start at 90 (plus VAT) for smaller sizes, while wool and cotton rugs begin at 40 (plus VAT) per square meter. The process removes dirt and stains without damaging delicate fibers, preserving the rug's longevity and appearance through meticulous, manual care.
Runners
Runners are long, narrow rugs designed for hallways and corridors, typically measuring over 2.5 times longer than their width. Our collection includes Persian and Afghan runners with intricate designs, ranging from 72cm x 313cm to 350cm x 84cm. These durable pieces combine practicality with artistic value, adding warmth and visual interest to transitional spaces in residential and commercial settings.
Underlays
We supply high-quality underlays to protect floors and secure rugs in place, available in various sizes to fit different rug dimensions. Our recommended Foxi Super Plus underlay prevents slipping on both carpeted and smooth surfaces, enhancing safety while maintaining the rug's appearance. Prices start at 11.50 for smaller sizes, with larger options available to suit all requirements.
