Spots

Stain removal requires care in its various stages, products and also specialized labor. ​We recommend removing the excess with water and then starting the washing process when the item comes into contact with something that could stain, such as wine, animal urine, juices and other liquid substances. Any homemade attempt to remove stains can cause the threads and weft to fray, and change the colors of the piece.

> Dry spots; remove immediately by scraping carefully towards the middle of the spot.
> Wet spots; do not rub. Absorb with paper towels, damp with cloth and mild detergent.
> Professional carpet cleaning when needed.
