Rug Repair & Restoration

Care for the details. Respect the original weave.

Care, considered

A thoughtful approach to every piece.

From fraying fringe and loose edges to weakened foundations and areas of loss, repair and restoration begin with the rug’s construction, condition, and the character you want to preserve. The conversation starts with what can be conserved and what intervention is appropriate.

01

Fringe & end finishes

Discuss worn or unraveling ends and the appropriate way to secure them without compromising the foundation.

02

Selvedges & binding

Address loose side edges and binding with attention to the original structure and finish.

03

Small holes & worn areas

Explore localized repairs for damage and wear, with materials and techniques considered for the individual rug.

04

Structural conservation

Review weakened foundations, older repairs, and areas of loss to establish priorities for the piece.

05

Reweaving & pile loss

Discuss whether reweaving or other localized work is suitable for damaged sections, with respect for the original construction.

06

Colour & pattern continuity

Consider how replacement materials and pattern matching will sit alongside the existing wool, dyes, and natural signs of age.

Let’s talk about your rug

Begin with a conversation.

Include the approximate dimensions, a description of the damage, and anything you know about the rug’s age, origin, and previous repairs. Scope, timing, and cost depend on assessment.
