The finest silk begins with the mulberry-fed silkworm. It originates from Bombyx mori silkworms raised on mulberry leaves, producing long, uniform filaments with exceptional softness, strength, and natural sheen. It drinks in acid dyes deeply, so colors stay rich and luminous for generations. At Sakina Traditional Persian Rug, we use only Grade-A Mulberry silk—crafted to be an heirloom, not just a purchase.

Our rugs are woven using the Persian (Senneh) knot, the most refined knot in the world. This asymmetrical knot is tied with the warp threads on two different levels, allowing for higher knot density, sharper details, and more intricate patterns. It is the most difficult knot to master — a technique perfected only by Persian artisans. At Sakina Traditional Persian Rug, every piece is created by these master weavers, carrying forward the heritage of true Persian craftsmanship.

Your silk rug is a masterpiece, woven to last generations. With mindful care, its beauty will endure:

• Vacuum lightly using suction only; avoid brushes and rollers.

• Rotate every few months to balance wear and fading.

• Keep away from direct sunlight to preserve luster and dyes.

• Blot spills immediately with a white cloth; never rub. Use cold water or a mild vinegar solution if needed.

• Dry flat in shade — never apply heat or hang by one edge.

• For deeper care, rely on professional silk rug specialists.
