FOR YOUR

RUGGED CARPETS.

Artistic masterpiece specially made for you.
We would like to advice you some basics on your
beautiful Hand Made Rug and also advice you on
how to take special care of it to make it last for years
and years to come.
BASICS
SHEDDING
You may experience shedding with a new rug – the amount and
duration of shedding is different from rug type to rug type.
Tufted-rugs have more potential to shed than others due to the
type of construction, but the amount of shedding will lessen
over time and after a few months the shedding should stop.
With usage, as the top layers of pile break, (in most cases wool),
the pile looks shinier and smoother, and with light exposure the
colors look more harmoniousIn fact, with proper use, hand-
made rugs generally become more valuable.
ROTATE YOUR RUG AND SUNLIGHT
Rotating your carpet (area rug) one or two times per year is
helpful in keeping heavy traffic marks to a minimum. Sunlight
ensures that your Beautiful Rug is saved from insects. Putting
your Rug in the Sun will help your Rug remain cleaner and
Healthier.The sunlight also kills small insects which might have
penetrated in.Also Soft cups can be placed under furniture legs
to prevent permanent dents in the pile. When you move
furnishings, try to follow direction of the pile.

2. VACUUMING
As a part of regular maintenance and to keep dust mites from
settling in, vacuum at least 3-4 times per month. Avoiding using
beater bars as they are very hard on your rugs. . Vacuuming in
the direction of the pile will help to prevent additional dirt and
dust from settling farther into the pile. Vacuuming against the
direction of the pile or sideways will brush and lift the pile. We
recommend that you vacuum in at least two directions, starting
with moving in the direction of the pile. Limit how often you
vacuum the fringe, particularly if your vacuum has a brush or
beater bar. When needed, use suction only.
BEATING AND VACUUMING THE BACK OF YOUR RUG
In addition to regularly vacuuming the face of your rug, every
six to twelve months it is advisable to vacuum the back of the
rug. This process can most easily be achieved by folding the rug
in half, vacuuming and beating the back, returning the area
rug to its original position to vacuum the face and repeating this
process for the other half.
PROFESSIONAL CLEANING
It is recommended that you have your rugs professionally
cleaned every two to three years or as necessary. If you have a
spill or a pet stain that is difficult to remove, get the rug treated
by a professional as soon as possible. In most cases professional
cleaning will help. Professional cleaning will also help keep your
rug healthy and lustrous
We enclose a Booklet to help you take care of stains spills and
any other unwanted nastiness on the Rug.
