To retain the luster and beauty, hand knotted carpets should be deep dry-cleaned once every 18 months, depending upon the life-style of the household, frequency of vacuuming, and whether the carpet is a light or dark color. It is generally recommended that your hand knotted or hand woven carpet be washed every three to five years.

Your hand tufted carpet needs vacuuming once a week, or more frequently depending on the life-style of the household. These carpets are prewashed and cannot be washed once delivered, since the tufting process involves tufting on a fabric after which the loops are kept in place with latex, which should not be exposed to water.

Frequent vacuuming will keep your dhurrie free of loose dirt. Skip the beater bar on your vacuum if the dhurrie has a fringed border, to avoid catching the ends in the machine and damaging it or the dhurrie. If your dhurrie pattern works well on both sides as most do, you may flip the carpet seasonally to slow its fading.

For all of the above, if a thread becomes loose in your carpet, do not pull it, but carefully cut it with sharp scissors. This will not damage the carpet.
