Tips to Maintain Your Antique Rugs
- Vacuum your antique rug regularly using a suction-only setting to remove dirt and debris without damaging the fibers.
- Rotate your rug periodically to ensure even wear, especially in high-traffic areas.
- Keep your rug out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, and use curtains or blinds to protect it from UV rays.
- Use a rug pad beneath your rug to prevent slipping, reduce wear, and provide cushioning while protecting the floor.
- If a spill occurs, blot spills gently with a clean cloth, avoid scrubbing, and consult a professional for stubborn stains.
- If you need to store your antique rug, roll it up (don’t fold) and store it in a cool, dry, and dark place to avoid humidity and pests.
- Have your antique rug professionally cleaned every 1-3 years to maintain its condition and avoid harsh chemicals.
