Frequently asked questions and answers

Who is Rugtales?

A Hamburg-based seller of hand-picked vintage rugs: from Persian classics through kelims to plain pieces that suit Scandinavian rooms, all cleaned and checked.

In what condition do the rugs arrive?

Washed and inspected; genuine signs of use like slight pile differences are part of vintage and are stated in the description. What you see is the honest condition.

How do I find the right rug size?

In the living room at least the front furniture feet should stand on the rug; under a dining table you need about 60 centimetres beyond the table top all round. Dimensions are listed with every piece.

How do I care for a vintage rug day to day?

Vacuum regularly without a rotating brush, dab stains immediately with cold water and rotate the rug occasionally. A professional wash every few years is worth it.
