Hand-knotted rugs are inherently sustainable: no electricity, no machines, no synthetic processes. Just hands, time, and natural materials like virgin wool, cotton, or even silk, used for centuries.
In our Hamburg warehouse, each piece is inspected by hand, biologically washed, and restored if necessary before sale. A rug that lasts for decades is the most sustainable rug of all.
🏅 STEP – Sustainable Textile Production
10-point standard for fair production. Bindingly checks wages, working conditions, and excludes child labour.
🤝 CARE & FAIR
Educational and health projects for weaver communities. Because a fair rug means more than a clean certificate.
Hand-knotted rugs are robust and durable if you follow a few simple guidelines.
🧹 Vacuuming without a brush head, in the direction of the pile. Not across the fringes.
💧 Spills should be dabbed immediately with a damp cloth, never rubbed.
🚫 Do not use chemicals or harsh cleaners. Professional cleaning is recommended for stubborn stains.
☀️ Avoid direct sunlight to slow down the fading of natural colours.
📦 Storage should always be rolled, never folded. Store in a dry and ventilated place.
