How do I maintain a Persian or Oriental carpet?

Of course, you would like to keep your carpet in good state for as long as possible. Go in the direction of the pile with your vacuum cleaner and make sure to rotate your rug regularly to enjoy it even longer.

Dry stains 
Remove these stains by carefully scraping towards the centre of the stain. 

Wet stains 
Treat these stains by absorbing the liquid with a paper towel and dabbing with a moist, white cloth and a mild detergent. 

Use professional carpet cleaning if needed.
