Product Description

Hemp Bouquet Handwoven Vintage Hemp Rug, 8x6 ft, Anatolian

Elevate your home decor with the exquisite Hemp Bouquet Handwoven Vintage Hemp Rug. This unique piece, measuring 8 feet by 6 feet 3 inches, is a testament to the timeless beauty and durability of Anatolian craftsmanship. Handwoven by skilled village women in the mid-1900s, each rug in our collection is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the Anatolian region.

Design and Pattern:
The rug features a minimalist yet sophisticated striped pattern, with alternating bands of muted green and natural beige. The subtle variations in the shades of green and beige add depth and texture, highlighting the artisanal quality of the handwoven fabric. The medium grey background is accented with dyed black triple and single hemp selvage stripes, and more subtle, lighter grey hemp stripes, creating a harmonious and balanced visual effect.

Material and Craftsmanship:
Crafted from pure hemp fibers, this rug is not only eco-friendly but also incredibly durable. The natural staining by fungi, which occurs when dry hemp stalks are wetted by rain, results in a unique and colorfast grey hue. The ends are rolled and stitched with hemp thread to prevent raveling and fraying, ensuring the rug's longevity. The use of natural dyes and hand-spun hemp fibers reflects the eco-friendly practices of ancient Anatolian weavers.

Cultural and Historical Significance:

Care Instruction

Product Care Instructions for Hemp-Made Vintage Rug

Routine Cleaning:

Vacuuming Frequency: Vacuum your vintage hemp rug once a week to maintain its pristine condition.

Vacuuming Method: Use a suction attachment instead of a rotary vacuum to preserve the delicate fibers and protect the intricate handwoven patterns.

Periodic Maintenance:

Flipping and Rotating: Flip and rotate your rug annually to ensure even wear and extend its lifespan by distributing foot traffic and sunlight exposure more evenly.

Professional Care:

Hand-Washing: Have your rug professionally hand-washed every 3-5 years using a pH-balanced shampoo and a soft-bristled brush. This gentle cleaning method helps preserve the natural fibers and colors.

Avoid Steam or Dry Cleaning: Steam and dry cleaning can damage the delicate hemp and goat hair fibers. Always choose professional hand-washing to maintain the rug's integrity.

Spill Management:

Immediate Action: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the liquid deeper into the fibers.

Avoid Adding Liquids: Do not add water or cleaning solutions to the spill, as this can cause moisture migration in the horizontal fibers, potentially leading to damage.

Severe Stains: For severe stains, consult an Oriental rug specialist. They have the expertise to handle delicate vintage rugs and can prevent further damage.
