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 Nadjafabad rugs come from? Southwest of Isfahan, on the road to Arak, lies the small town of Nadjafabad in Iran, where 11,000 weavers work on 5,500 looms. It is one of the main production centers in the region. Its activity began a few years after Isfahan rugs were launched on the domestic market. Nadjafabad rugs imitate both the design and the colors of Isfahan rugs, though without matching their fineness.

How to recognize an authentic Nadjafabad rug? They feature classic Persian patterns, with a central round medallion, corner spandrels, and floral scrolls across the entire field. However, the design is coarser and more stylized than that of an Isfahan rug, but it is highlighted by a local technique that involves outlining the pattern with dark borders.

Invite Persia into your home, explore our collection today and let yourself be captivated by the beauty and magic of handmade Nadjafabad rugs, an invaluable treasure for your interior. All our Nadjafabad rugs are sold with their certificate of origin.
