Aikat rug 227x172 – handmade modern Persian rug

Aikat rug: handmade from wool

The Aikat rug is a handmade rug of Afghan origin measuring 172 × 227 cm. Its wool pile has a thickness of 7–9 mm. The rug features a blue and beige colour palette.

The Aikat rug is 172 cm wide, 227 cm long and 7–9 mm thick. Its knot density is approximately 200 000 knots/m². Knot density is one of the numerical characteristics of the pile's structure. Consider it alongside thickness; a thicker rug does not in itself have a higher knot density. Its dimensions may also make it suitable for a living room.

The pile is handmade from wool yarn. The knots are attached to cotton warp threads. Handmade construction and the wool pile define the rug's structure. The direction of the fibres changes the appearance from different angles: lighter and darker colour effects can be observed on the same rug. It is therefore helpful to view product photographs from different angles together before purchasing.

The Aikat rug is known as a modern Persian rug and is made in Afghanistan. This Oriental rug combines wool material with handmade craftsmanship.

When choosing the Aikat rug, consider both the photographs of the actual product and its 172 × 227 cm dimensions. The presentation below provides further visual guidance on this rug type.

Cleaning the handmade wool pile

Regular, gentle vacuuming is the basis of caring for the Aikat rug. Set the vacuum cleaner to low suction and move the head in the direction of the wool pile. Keep the area beneath the rug clean as well. Avoid vigorous rubbing of the wool surface and, where possible, treat soiling before it dries.

Treat fresh soiling as soon as possible with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Do not rub the stain vigorously or soak the rug. Choose only a cleaner suitable for wool and follow its instructions for use. Test on a less visible area first; for stubborn stains or more extensive cleaning, consult a professional experienced with handmade rugs.
