Kashan Rugs
This antique Kashan Mohtashem rug was woven in the central Persian town of Kashan. Intricate poly-chromatic floral patterns play over the ivory central field as a symmetrical medallion and corner-pieces complete the design. Surrounding this design is a lovely border of delicate multi-colored floral patterns with a small guardband securing the border.
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
