Restoration: Example 1
This fine 17th century Kurdish rug needed a fair amount of restoration to work areas and other damage. The pictures below show the progress of reknotting/repiling of the worn areas. The wool type and size were matched and then hand-dyed at our workshop. Click any picture for an enlargement.

Repair.
Day-to-day use and abuse always results in regular maintainance and repair. Some typical repairs are detailed below: rough ends, fringes, unravelling sides, kicked-up corners, and that small spot the dog chewed or the cat clawed while you were out. Shaneybrook services all of these repairs and more.
Other restoration examples.
When abuse or damage exceeds the capabilities of more simple repairs, restoration is available. The nature of restoration projects demands a more individual assessment for the needs of your rug or carpet. A member of our conservation team can provide you with the best options and a plan for any restoration project.
