7x9 Gray Vintage Turkish Rug | Distressed Persian

1. Regular Maintenance: Regularly vacuum the rug to remove dirt and dust. Be sure to use a vacuum with a low pile setting and avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar, as this can damage the fibers.
2. Spot Cleaning: If there is a spill or stain on the rug, act quickly to prevent the stain from setting in. Blot the area with a clean, dry cloth to absorb as much of the liquid as possible. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing the area, as this can damage the fibers. Use a mild detergent and water solution to gently clean the affected area.
3. Professional Cleaning: Vintage rugs and kilims should be professionally cleaned every 3-5 years to maintain their quality and prevent damage. Look for a reputable professional rug cleaner who has experience with vintage rugs and kilims.
4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach to clean the rug, as this can damage the fibers and alter the color. Stick to mild, natural cleaners that are specifically designed for use on rugs.
5. Sunlight: Avoid exposing the rug to direct sunlight for extended periods of time, as this can cause fading and damage to the fibers.
6. Storage: If you need to store the rug, roll it up and store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in a damp or humid area, as this can cause mold and mildew to develop.

Rug-Specific Return Conditions

Your rug must meet these conditions for return eligibility:

• Same condition as received - no stains, pet odors, or damage beyond normal inspection
• Minimal use - rugs showing signs of use beyond careful inspection are not eligible
• Original packaging - returned in protective wrapping or rolled condition when possible
• Natural vintage characteristics - the following are inherent features of authentic vintage rugs and are NOT considered defects or grounds for return:
  • Natural color fading or variation due to age and sunlight exposure
  • Minor wear patterns from previous use
  • Slight color differences between different areas of the rug
  • Small repairs or reweaving that are part of the rug's history
  • Natural patina and aging that gives vintage rugs their character
  • Slight irregularities in shape or edges typical of hand-woven rugs
  • Natural variations in pile height due to age and use
• Photography and color representation - all product photos are taken in studio conditions with artificial lighting. Minor color variations between the photographed rug and the actual rug you receive are normal and not grounds for return. We recommend viewing the rug in different lighting conditions in your home before making a return decision.

Certain types of items cannot be returned:

• Custom-sized rugs or specially ordered items
• Personalized rugs with custom patterns or monograms
