A one of a kind hand-knotted rug with a short 6mm wool pile on a cotton foundation finished with a short intergral fringe. The use of exceptional quality hand spun wool and natural dyes produce a jewel like finish and subtle abrash across the pile surface. The Pictorial collection is very similar in design and style to that of the Khurjeen design, woven and made by the same Hazara tribe based in central and Northern Afghanistan in the Bamyan and Kabul provinces. Using handspun Afghan Ghazni Wool using natural vegetable dyes such as Walnut, Pomegranate, Root plants and saffron. Once dyed and hand knotted onto a cotton warp base in Afghanistan the rugs are transported over to Pakistan where they are expertly finished including washing and trimming. In 1 sqm of a Pictorial rug there would be around 140000 + knots.
Rug Underlay
We recommend the use of Teebaud anti-slip underlay with your rug.
This reduces the potential for trip hazards by minimising slippage.
It will prevent rucking, makes vacuuming easier, feels better to walk on, provides heat insulation, improves sound dampening, and reduces any possibility of colour transfer from your rug to the floor surface beneath.
See our Teebaud Anti-slip Underlay for more details
General Maintenance
Vacuum regularly, the heavier the traffic the more frequent you should vacuum.
Use a suction only type vacuum cleaner or tool attachments, vacuums with rotating brushes are not recommended as they can damage the edges of the rug.
High Loops and Sprouting Tufts
Long threads, high tufts or high loops may appear above the pile surface.
These can be trimmed to the surrounding pile height with a sharp pair of scissors without any detriment to the appearance or wear ability of the rug in anyway whatsoever.
Stains and Spillage
It is important to deal with any spills quickly, NEVER rub a spill.
Blot up any excess liquid using absorbent paper towels or a clean white terry cloth towel.
For all stains, we recommend a Specialist cleaning service.
