Persian Pictorial carpet
Persian Pictorial Rugs and Wall Hanging Rugs is one of the unique Iranian arts that has gained a very special place in domestic and foreign markets over time. As time has passed, the share of machine-made Persian pictorial carpets in addition to hand-woven pictorial carpets in people’s lives has increased. Has done.
But since Iranian handicrafts require more effort than machine type, handmade pictorial carpets have more value and price than machine type.
similarities and differences between Wall Hanging Rugs and Rugs :
If we want to compare pictorial carpets and rugs in terms of being handmade, I must say that there is not much difference between the principles of weaving pictorial carpets and handmade rugs, and both are done in the same way.
But the difference between hand-woven pictorial carpets and hand-woven carpets is very obvious.
The subtlety used between them is that this subtlety of most hand-woven pictorial carpets is relative to a machine for one reason:
_Size of pictorial carpets_ Because handmade pictorial carpets are smaller than hand-made carpets, as a result of the variety of patterns, colours, and texture models, make the work more sensitive, therefore, the weaver desperately needs to observe some more details.
But there is not much difference between machine-made pictorial carpets and machine-made carpets, both in terms of texture and in terms of workmanship, because both are woven by the machine.
How to clean pictorial carpets:
The best way to dust the Wall Hanging Rugs is to use a vacuum cleaner dust brush. If you wash the pictorial carpet in which chemical dyes are used, it is possible to mix the colours. In general, it can be said that Iranian handmade pictorial carpets do not need washing.
But if for any reason you feel that your pictorial carpet is dirty, get help from reputable carpet washing centers that also specialize in washing Pictorial carpets. If you do not know such centers and you want to do it yourself, first remove the board from the frame. Then sweep the pictorial carpet with a vacuum cleaner with a clean mouth to remove dust particles.
Washing the carpet with acidic detergents reduces its durability and destroys the carpet fibres. The best detergents for carpets are low-acid soaps. Bleaching chemicals should never be used in carpet washing to whiten carpet roots. Because such acids hurt the carpet and will cause rapid root rot.
Never spread the pictorial carpet on the rope. Because it may stretch.
For washing Iranian handmade pictorial carpets, get advice from a carpet washing expert. Each carpet is washed according to the material, density, stains, and type of colour, and carpet washing and washing of each carpet is different. But for pictorial carpets, it is better to wash (upgrade) these carpets because pictorial carpets are more visible than other carpets and should always be clean and tidy.
It requires fewer steps to wash the carpet. Also, regularly and weekly, dust the Wall Hanging Rugs with a dusting brush to remove dust from Iranian handmade pictorial carpets.
1- Silk (of course of natural type)
2- Merinos Tabriz
3- Wool
4- Threads made of synthetic fibres (such as acrylic)
If we want to make a comparison between these 3 types of yarn, it is as follows:
1- Silk fibres: Due to the better material and more resistance than merino and wool fibres, it is in a higher degree, so it is natural that pictorial carpets woven with this type of fibre, ie silk, are much more valuable, more expensive and also from the viewer’s point of view. They look much more enchanting.
2- Merino yarn: Merino yarn is in the next degree in terms of material and strength. If we compare Merino and 3- Wool yarn: Merino yarns have a much higher advantage over wool fibers for two reasons:
1- Merino yarns are thinner than wool, so the resulting texture will be more beautiful.
2- Wool fibres will wear out over time if merino yarns are not.
In short, if we want to compare the fibres used in the carpet in terms of superiority, this is the case.
Silk> Merino> Wool
4- Synthetic fibres: But if I want to talk about the yarn material of machine-made pictorial carpets, I must say that machine-made pictorial carpets, as their name implies, are produced by machine-like machine-made carpets.
Machine-made pictorial carpets do not use the fibres used in the handmade type, but the type of fibres used are synthetic, such as acrylic and polyester cotton materials.
Also, the types of yarns used are chemical, which has a much lower resistance compared to hand-made fibres.
Again, if we want to make a comparison between the fibres we have known so far in terms of strength and superiority:
1- Silk> 2- Merino> 3- Wool> 4- Synthetic fibres (such as acrylic)
This is exactly why machine-made pictorial carpets are less expensive than manual pictorial carpets.
Note: Silk fibres are divided into two categories, natural and synthetic. The natural type is used in pictorial carpets and hand-woven carpets, but the artificial type is used in machine-made pictorial carpets.
The effect of carpet size on the texture quality of Wall Hanging Rugs:
The effect of carpet size on the texture quality of Wall Hanging Rugs:If you are a pictorial carpet weaver yourself or you are going to buy a pictorial carpet, I suggest you do not use pictorial carpets that are relatively small in size. but why? For two reasons:
1- The quality of the panel surface design
2- The elegance and beauty of the painting
The greater the longitudinal and transverse dimensions of the pictorial carpet, the more the two items mentioned will appear and show themselves more, especially if you are going to buy a pictorial carpet of a face.
Factors that determine the price of pictorial carpets:
1- The material of yarn or fibres used in the pictorial carpet
2- The size and also the density of the pictorial carpet (in terms of fine weaving and coarse weaving)
3- The type of design and map used in the pictorial Persian rugs
