Conservation

The conservation of antique carpets, rugs, and textiles is a delicate marriage of art and science, requiring deep knowledge and highly specialized skills. The entire being of the carpet, rug, or textile – its soul -- is determined by its origin, the quality of the wool, silk, or cotton used for the warp and weft, and the types of dyes selected to create it.
