How to Bring an Old Rug Back to Life

After a few years of use, even the most vibrant rug can begin to look tired and worn.  Luckily, there is an easy solution to revitalizing your rug for years to come.  Main Street Oriental Rugs offers professional rug cleaning services that help make your old rug look healthier, warmer, and younger through a simple rug cleaning process.  Our process completely removes bacteria, allergens, drink stains, dust mites, and pet urine without causing any damage to your rug.  We are proud to offer you an easy solution to your indoor allergies, dirty carpet, and darkened room all at one time.  Main Street Oriental Rugs is here to renew, strengthen, and soften your rug at the most competitive price in Maryland.

Oriental Rug Cleaning

Many people don't think about what happens to their rug after they buy it; however, like any other household piece, Oriental rugs need attention too.  In order to extend the life of a high quality rug and to preserve its color, it is recommended that a professional (such as us) clean your Oriental rug once every 3-5 years, or more often if it is in a high traffic area.  Cleaning an Oriental rug doesn't take very long, yet the benefits of the wash help prevent premature wear and even prevent allergens such as pollen and dust mites from invading your home.  It is easy to forget about maintaining your fine rug, especially since Oriental rugs vacuum easily and don't pill, yet only a professional wash can give it a truly thorough cleansing.  If you have a fine Oriental rug that needs some attention, including pet stains and repairs, don't hesitate to call us at 410-313-9090 or visit us in store at 8290 Main Street, Ellicott City, MD, 21043.

Rug themed Clothing

We have recently tumbled upon a beautiful creation of art that incorporates the elegance of Persian rugs with the flashy styles of the 21st century.  This piece of art has been created by Matt Camron, a runway fashion designer.  In one of his most recent shows, Cameron put on display Tabriz-themed outfits, which included floral bracelets, intricate blouse patterns, and vine motifs.  Rug-themed dresses have become a symbol of innovative clothing, yet not without proper cause.  Persian rugs have stunned the art industry for years by providing a durable, yet also functional piece of art.  If you would like to experience our massive collection of oriental rugs, please stop by and visit us at Main Street Oriental Rugs, 8290 Main Street, Ellicott City, MD.

Bidjar rugs

Bidjar rugs embody a rose by having a multi-layered, diamond shaped medallion design that is usually cast with red rust colors and white highlights.  Traditional Bidjar rugs are distinguished by the fact that, after completion of the rug, they are beaten with a hammer-like tool, creating a compressed weave that leads to a thinner, yet more durable rug.  Because of this, Bidjar rugs have been given the nickname “The Iron Rug”.  More modern versions can be found with all-over floral designs that replace the traditional layered medallion, along with a less rigorous pounding process to preserve the softness of the rug.  Due to an embargo on Persian rugs in 2008, these rugs have become increasingly valuable in today's market and are becoming harder and harder to find.  Due to this rarity, Bidjar-design rugs have been made in areas of Pakistan and India, thus preventing the extinction of a very unique design.  If you would like more information on Bidjar Rugs or if you are interested in our store, call us at 410-313-9090, or visit us online at www.msorientalrugs.com.  You can also visit us in-store at 8290 Main Street, Ellicott City, MD 21043.
