Needlepoint/woven tapestry cleaning and restoration are intricate processes that require a high level of expertise. This is different from cleaning a regular hand knotted Persian rug as the weave and characteristics of dyes are entirely different. Cleaning should be done with great care to preserve the tapestry's fibers and colors, and restoration involves skilled techniques to repair damage and return the rug to its original state. Whether your needlepoint rug is a family heirloom or a beloved piece, professional cleaning and restoration will help maintain its beauty and value for years to come.
