Oushak-Anatolian-Kars Rugs
The central Abrash (color change) in the field gives this rug a wonderful look and feel. Abrash is a color change that normally occurs when the weavers introduce a newly died batch of wool that does not exactly match the previous batch. This gives a rug a truly unique look. Colors: taupe/madder red/ivory
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.
