Choosing the right carpet size is as important as choosing the right design. Here is how we guide our clients:
1. In a living room, choose a size where the front legs of all key furniture rest on the carpet
2. In a bedroom, the carpet should extend at least 60 cm beyond either side of the bed
3. In a dining room, ensure chairs remain on the carpet even when pulled out from the table
4. In a hallway or corridor, the carpet should run the full length, with 10–15 cm clearance on each side
5. When in doubt, our design consultants offer complimentary guidance at all Hands showrooms. A great carpet, in the right size, transforms a room. We help you find it.

How do I care for a carpet from the Antique Turkish Kilims so it lasts for generations? +

A Hands carpet, cared for with the same devotion with which it was made, will endure for generations. Vacuum gently, on a low setting, never against the pile. Rotate every six months so the light and the foot fall are shared evenly across the weave. If something spills, blot, never rub; the fibres have memory, and patience is always rewarded. A professional clean every year or two will restore the lustre and depth that make fine wool so extraordinary. Treat it as the heirloom it is. Our selection of antique persian carpets is rare, each piece a survivor of time, its beauty only deepened by the years it carries.

What materials and craft techniques define the Antique Turkish Kilims? +

The construction, hand knotted, hand tufted, or hand woven, depending on the design, is executed by artisans who painstakingly work to elevate carpet making beyond craft into art. Natural dyes, where the design calls for them, give each carpet a colour depth that deepens, rather than fades, with time. This is how Hands has worked since 1881. This is what it means to say a carpet is handmade in the purest sense.
