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 Hamadan carpets come from? Originating from the Hamadan region in Iran, Hamadan carpets are unparalleled decorative objects. A perfect expression of elegance, they are characterized by graceful geometric patterns and their vibrant hues.

How are they made? Made from wool pile or camel hair, Hamadan carpets are known for their extreme durability.

What are their patterns? Most Hamadan carpets feature a central medallion or aligned medallions; the rhomboid (diamond-shaped) or hexagonal medallion is complemented by two pendants and often decorated internally with geometric Herati patterns. The borders are most often decorated with polygonal or stylized plant motifs.

How to recognize a genuine Hamadan carpet? A Hamadan can be recognized by its technical and stylistic characteristics. Made with a symmetrical or Turkish knot, its pile is cut high, and it has a very compact structure, thanks to the weft, which is generally made of a single thread. The dominant colors of Hamadan carpets are blue, red, black, and pink.
