Oriental and Persian rugs are wool carpets crafted by hand, either with a pile that is tied in knots or without a pile. Items come in a range of complex colors and patterns and are seen as valuable pieces of art by many. It is important to ensure appropriate care of Oriental rugs in order to protect their value and maintain their appearance.

Oriental rugs need to be deep cleaned periodically, just like other floor coverings, despite taking preventive measures against dirt. Take extra precautions when cleaning to prevent discoloration and damage to delicate wool fibers. Schaper's Supply carries specialty chemicals and cleaning treatments specifically designed to clean Oriental rugs without causing colors to bleed or delicate fibers to fray. We highly recommend that periodic deep cleaning be only performed by professional carpet cleaners.
