Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if a Persian rug is handmade?
Authentic handmade Persian rugs feature individually tied knots, natural variations in pattern, and exceptional craftsmanship that cannot be replicated by machine-made rugs.
Do Persian rugs increase in value over time?
High-quality handmade Persian rugs often retain their value well, and some rare or collectible pieces may appreciate over time when properly cared for.
Are Persian rugs suitable for homes with pets?
Yes. Wool Persian rugs are naturally durable and resilient. Regular vacuuming and prompt cleaning of spills will help keep them looking their best.
Can Persian rugs be used with underfloor heating?
Yes. Most handmade wool Persian rugs can be used over underfloor heating systems, provided the flooring manufacturer's recommendations are followed.
Are the Persian rugs at Nile Rugs one-of-a-kind?
Yes. Most of our handmade Persian rugs are unique pieces, meaning once a rug is sold, an identical replacement is generally not available.
Do Persian rugs fade over time?
Quality handmade Persian rugs are dyed to provide long-lasting colour. Rotating your rug occasionally and avoiding prolonged direct sunlight can help preserve its appearance.
How should I store a Persian rug if I'm not using it?
Clean the rug thoroughly, roll it rather than fold it, wrap it in a breathable fabric, and store it in a cool, dry location away from moisture.
Can a Persian rug become a family heirloom?
Yes. Handmade Persian rugs are renowned for their durability and timeless craftsmanship, making them pieces that can be enjoyed and passed down through generations.
