profession. We receive rugs for repair from all over the North
America from dealers and regular households.
Artistic Repairs
Valuable Persian & Oriental rugs are handled by the art department,
which specializes in repairing tears and holes, as well as authentic
restorations that are painstakingly tailored to the nature of the
rug, beginning with identification of the type of thread in the
right hue, to repair and dyeing with natural plant and mineral
extracts.
The repair includes identification of the type of weft and warp
knots used in the rug, manual restoration and renovation of fringes
and end, based on the original and using wool, cotton and silk
threads.
In addition, the department restores woven fabrics and cloth
including handmade ones such as Suzani applications and embroidered
and lace tablecloths. This craft is carried out by masters of the
Persian, Turkish, Chinese and Indian techniques.
The raw threads for repair are purchased from several suppliers around the world, located in New Zealand, Scotland, Persia, etc. When repairing antique rugs, the company works with suppliers in England and Germany, based on need, in order to purchase rug swatches woven in the right era and required weaving method.
Rug
End Repairs
Fringe Stitching
Fringes are stitched across the rug, and can be restored by two
methods. The first involves assembling prefabricated fringes. The
second involves created a restored base in the rug, with manual
weaving of the fringe base as well as manual tying. In this manner,
the fringe is restored exactly as in the original woven rug.
Repair of Holes / Tears and Worn out Areas in the Rug
In this type of repair, the selected weaving builds the base – the
weft and warp threads that run the length and width of the rug. The
missing motifs are then manually reproduced. The raw thread that
matches the weaving is selected and dyed using the appropriate
coloring and dying methods.
Restoration
(Color
Separation)
In rugs damaged by flooding that resulted in blending of colors,
restoration (color separation) is carried out manually using natural
materials that do not harm the quality of the color.
Finishing
After every new rug has been woven, a starch-based material is
sprayed on the base / back of the rug that makes it stiff. After the
rug has been used for two years, the finishing becomes worn out,
replaced by sand that sinks into the rug's base and makes it hard.
After removing the sand during the cleaning process, the rug becomes
soft and the finishing must be renewed.
