Oushak-Anatolian-Kars Rugs
This lovely Rug hand knotted in Turkey in the 1940's has a natural abrash (color change) common in old pieces and giving a uniqueness to the rug. All the elements one looks for in a rug from this era are here. Colors: beige/green/blue/taupe/ivory/brown.
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.
