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 Roudbar rugs come from? Roudbar rugs come from the Roudbar region, located in the Khorasan province of Iran. This region is renowned for its traditional craftsmanship and exceptional expertise in rug making. Roudbar rugs are hand-woven by talented local artisans who perpetuate ancestral weaving techniques passed down from generation to generation. These rugs are prized for their exceptional quality, magnificent aesthetics, and rich history spanning centuries.

How are they woven? Roudbar rugs are hand-woven by talented artisans who master the ancient art of weaving. To create these rugs, artisans use traditional looms and specific knotting techniques. The most commonly used weaving method is the Persian knot, also known as the Senneh knot, which involves individually knotting each strand of wool around the warp threads. This meticulous process creates complex patterns and fine details that characterize Roudbar rugs. Artisans also use different weaving techniques, such as flat weaving and relief weaving, to create varied textures and visual effects. By using high-quality materials, such as sheep's wool and silk, and adhering to strict quality standards, artisans ensure that each Roudbar rug is a unique and precious work of art.

What do their patterns mean? The patterns of Roudbar Persian rugs are rich in symbolism and history, often inspired by the cultural and artistic traditions of the region. Each pattern can have its own meaning, conveying traditional messages, cultural values, or historical narratives. For example, floral patterns can symbolize beauty, prosperity, or fertility, while geometric patterns can represent harmony, balance, or protection. Similarly, animal motifs can be associated with specific character traits or qualities, such as strength, loyalty, or wisdom. Overall, the patterns of Roudbar rugs add symbolic and aesthetic depth to these precious works of art, enriching the visual and cultural experience of those who contemplate them.

How to recognize a genuine Roudbar rug? Persian Roudbar rugs are distinguished by their exceptional quality and unique aesthetics. Hand-made with high-quality materials such as wool and silk, these rugs are renowned for their characteristic sheen and softness to the touch.
