1) Regular rotation (every 6 months)
Why?

• Even wear (prevents worn pathways).
• Protects from UV rays (fading) and oxidation (natural dyes).
• Extends lifespan (50 to 100 years without loss of beauty).

2) Spot cleaning (gentle method)
With Marseille soap (no chemicals!)

• Absorb excess:
  For liquids: gently scrape with a spoon (do not rub).
  Avoid spreading the stain.
  
• Apply soap:
  Dip a block of Marseille soap in lukewarm water.
  Rub the stain in circular motions, let sit for 5 min.
  
• Rinse and dry:
  Wipe with a damp cloth (clear water).
  Elevate the rug (on a chair) for air drying.
  Tip: Use a fan (avoid direct sun).

⚠️ Avoid:

• Abrasive sponges or hard brushes.
• Bleach, ammonia (destroy fibers and dyes).

3) Drying: the key to preventing mold and moths
Risks of improper drying:

• Musty odors, white spots (mineral salts).
• Deformation and proliferation of dust mites/moths.

Best practices:

• Dry flat or elevated (no folding).
• Aerate both sides of the rug.
• Avoid residual moisture (dryer or fan if necessary).

Where do Bakhtiari rugs come from? The Bakhtiari people are an ancient nomadic population of Lori origin, established in the central part of the Zagros Mountains in Iran.

How are they made? Bakhtiari rugs, woven by this nomadic and semi-nomadic population, are made with symmetrical knots and are essentially characterized by the highly representative "Bakhtiyar" motif.

How to recognize a genuine Bakhtiari rug? The field is regularly divided into squares, octagons, or diamonds, enclosing stylized plant motifs (trees, flower bushes, and flowering branches). The colors used in their creation are primarily blue, red, yellow, and green.
