Work in the field of the Persian rug is somewhat more complicated. If your Persian rug has been neglected and needs some extra Master Weaver TLC, there are many things that can be accomplished. Corners and ends can actually be rebuilt, holes can have new warps and wefts foundations installed, and new Persian rug wool can be knotted in. Moth damage and burns can be re-knotted as well. This work can be costly, but is often worth doing because it maintains the ever-increasing value of your asset, and is less expensive then trying to find and then buy your Persian rug from your local reputable dealer. Restoration of the Persian rug pile or repair of holes should only by done by a Master Weaver who understands the structure of Persian weaving, and internal foundations. It is always better to have the Persian rug re-knotted than to have it "painted." Although painting is a quick fix (and very inexpensive), it can cause permanent damage to the Persian rug and will reduce the overall value of your piece.

The process of reweaving a hole is complex. First, the Persian rug must be cleaned, and then the broken foundation fiber must be repaired and extended to make it able to reweave. These Persian hand spinned, hand dyed wool threads are then sewn into the hole in the exact pattern and density as the foundation. Warp for warp, weft for weft, and knot for knot. Once the Persian rug foundation is rebuilt, the Master weaver is always able to mimic the pattern of the rug, one knot at a time in order to rebuild the design so that the repair is not noticeable. The alternative to this type of work is to take a patch from another Persian rug and have it sewn in. If the color matches well, and the design is appropriate, it becomes almost invisible, as long as you aren't looking for it. Applying a patch in a rug, or doing a full restoration is only possible if the area around the hole is in fairly good condition. If the pile isn't thick enough, it might be impossible to hide the stitching. We can give you the best advice in regards to major Persian rug repairs and restoration.
