About Shirvan Rugs
Shirvan rugs are rare Caucasian collector’s rugs traditionally crafted by artisans in Azerbaijan. Known for ultra-fine wool quality, precise hand-knotting, geometric tribal motifs, and rich nomadic character, each rug reflects generations of Oriental weaving tradition. Its low–medium pile offers texture, durability, and practical everyday use, while its one-of-one design makes it a distinctive piece of vintage textile art.
- Vacuum regularly on a low or no-beater-bar setting, taking care around the fringe.
- Rotate the rug every 6-12 months for even wear.
- Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing.
- Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve color.
- We recommend a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and extend the rug's life.
- For deeper cleaning, use a wool-safe professional rug cleaner every 1-2 years.
