Carpet Conservation and Services
Noure's Oriental Rugs provides one of the world's most highly regarded conservation services, catering to private collectors as well as homes, museums, and galleries. Conservation and restoration have been central services since the company's founding over 30 years ago. Noure's employs expert conservators and weavers, many trained in Europe, Turkey, Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, and Persia/Iran. With strong artistic intuition and in-depth conservation knowledge, the team is exceptionally qualified to handle fine antique and decorative carpets.
'Conservation Goals
Part of antique carpets' attraction are qualities acquired over time - mellowed colors, subtle variations from hand-weaving and vegetable dyes, and texture from use, giving them desirable patina. Noure's goal is restoring sound condition while preserving a carpet's intrinsic character. Since insensitive restoration can negatively impact value, conservation takes priority over repair, although restoring damaged areas remains important.
Carpet Cleaning
Noure's cleans carpets using appropriate techniques based on age and condition, including hand washing, machine washing, tumbling, and enzyme treatment. With proper 5-year cleaning cycles, carpets retain vibrancy and longevity.
