We offer specialist cleaning for handmade rugs using traditional, gentle methods tailored to natural fibres and dyes.

1. Inspection

We examine each rug’s material, dyes, and condition to plan the safest and most effective cleaning method.

2. Dust Removal

Deep dusting removes trapped dirt and grit from the fibres – essential before washing.

3. Dye Testing

Colours are tested for stability to prevent bleeding. Stabilisers are applied if needed.

4. Pre-Treatment

Stains and odours (e.g. pet or mildew) are spot-treated using safe, non-toxic solutions.

5. Hand Washing

Rugs are washed by hand using pH-balanced shampoos suitable for wool or silk.

6. Rinsing & Water Extraction

Thorough rinsing removes all residues, followed by gentle water extraction to preserve shape.

7. Flat Drying

Rugs are dried flat in a controlled environment to avoid shrinkage or fading.

8. Grooming & Final Check

The rug undergoes a final inspection before return.
