Use Oriental Rugs In Your Home With Japanese Interior Decorating

November 26th, 2009

When it comes to creating a simple, stylish and oriental look to the home, many people often turn to oriental rugs. They come in a variety of delicate, intricate patterns and they range in price so that everyone can have a chance of owning one. However, if you do choose to have an oriental rug to help give your home a Japanese Interior Decorating look, bear in mind that you will have to keep it maintained if you want it to last!

Cleaning Your Oriental rug

The most obvious type of cleaning you really need to do on a daily basis is vacuuming the rug. As with many other types of rugs, oriental rugs can look dirty quite quickly and some may even need to be vacuumed more than once a day. However, you do need to ensure that you have the vacuum on a setting which will not damage the rug. Usually it is better to have a setting which does not allow the vacuum to go into all of the fibers deep down in the rug; you only need to go over the top of it to keep the surface looking clean and tidy.

Keeping it vacuumed is usually sufficient enough to keep the rug clean, but what about if you spill something on it? Well in that case you really need to treat the spillage as soon as possible. As with anything, once a stain has had a chance to settle it is a lot harder to remove it. In case you are worried about ruining your rug, you may want to think of taking it to a specialist cleaner who knows all about your type of rug and who will know exactly how to clean it. Your local advertiser paper will allow you to find one close to your area. Failing that, you may be able to find out how to clean it on the rugs label if it has one. Some rugs do and that would make your life a lot easier!

Generally oriental rugs need specialist cleaners in order to remove the stains without harming the rug. It is possible to give it a wipe with water but overall it needs to be specially cleaned to fully remove all stains. If you do attempt to clean the rug yourself without knowing what you are doing, it is possible that the colors will run and that you will end up with a dull looking carpet.

So, overall treat your rug well by vacuuming it daily and try to avoid washing it yourself. Treat all spills as quickly as possible and you should end up with an oriental rug which lasts for years to come.

Oriental Rugs 101

October 30th, 2009
rug sets


Oriental rugs have grown in popularity due to their natural beauty and versatility as well as durability. From sophisticated to traditional, oriental rugs can set off any Houston décor with that little something special that sets a room apart from the rest.

The Construction  

Oriental rugs are different than most other forms of rugs due in part to the way they are made. Crafted of wool (or silk) they are typically hand-knotted with a pile that is literally “tied” to the foundation of the rug. The knot count in a typical rug can exceed 100 knots per square inch – making them not only labor intensive but also very durable.

Tip:  Whenever searching for Oriental rug cleaning or repair, be sure the company specializes in Houston rug weaving. Repair frequently requires weaving to form a seamless repair and preserve the beauty and value of the investment.

The Colors

Of course, oriental rugs are valued not only for the functionality and durability but also the colors and beauty of the design. The vibrant colors are derived from either natural or synthetic dyes; natural dyes such as those derived from roots have been used for hundreds – if not thousands – of years whereas synthetic dyes are relatively newer. Although all oriental rugs are subject to fading or color erosion, natural dyes are more delicate (and more valuable).

Tip: Keep oriental rugs out of harsh sunlight and never use commercial spot cleaners or other harsh chemicals on your oriental rug. They can damage delicate natural dyes!

Care and Maintenance

Despite their durability, oriental rugs require some special care and maintenance. Always have fraying or other blemishes taken care of immediately to prevent additional damage. Smaller repairs are not only less expensive but preserve the value of the carpet by maintaining the pristine nature of the work.

Avoid direct sunlight, harsh chemical and excessive wear patterns by properly positioning the rug in a space that allows maximum beauty and viewing with minimal intrusion.

Finally, always have work performed by qualified Houston Oriental rug weavers who know and understand the intricate nature of the work. Finding qualified Houston rug repair and Houston rug weaving isn’t always easy so it is advisable to go with a nationwide company like Kiwi Services  that provides a full guarantee in addition to the experience and expertise required to protect your valuable investment.
