To use these rugs, simply place them in the area of your home where you want to add a touch of elegance, like the living room or bedroom. When moving the rug, lift it gently to avoid damage. As for cleaning, vacuum it regularly with a soft - brush attachment to keep it free of dust. If there are any spills, blot them immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the colors and fibers. For deep cleaning, it's best to take the rug to a professional cleaner who has experience with antique rugs. Keep the rug away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent fading.
