designer hardwood furnishings.

The quality of wool has a great impact on the look and durability of a carpet. Hand-spun wool gives the carpet a lustrous, almost three-dimensional effect. While the natural lanolin in hand-spun wool increases protection against spills and stains on your Persian rug. so this not only offers a natural lustre to a handmade Persian rug but also makes them resistant to dirt and wear.
Choice of Custom Sized rugs
Some hotel designers have a strong preference for having custom-made furnishing for their interiors. They are, after all, dealing with a standard-sized guestroom that an exact-sized area rug has to stick to. These sizes don’t often adhere to standard-sized handmade Persian rugs. We can produce and weave rugs that meet such exacting requirements.
In our productions, we use high-quality wool that we dye ourselves using vegetable dyes. We ensure that the rug reflects the traditional weave and characters of that origin. Once the pieces are woven, they are checked and go through a high-level of finishing process. We are the only company that has production in very different weaves, such as Sultanabad, Turkish Ushak and Arts & Craft rugs.
