Die Gashghai oder Qashqai sind türkisch sprechende Nomadenstämme, die hauptsächlich in der Provinz Fars, vor allem um die Stadt Shiraz im Südwesten des Irans, leben. Neben Teppichen produzieren sie auch eine große Vielfalt an flachgewebten Kelim, die in der typischen Schlitzwebtechnik hergestellt werden. Das bedeutet, dass Schlitze im Kelim Teil des Herstellungsverfahrens sind, vor allem bei Farbwechseln. Die Technik impliziert die Struktur der Motive, die hauptsächlich geometrisch sind - typische Kelim-Muster. Die Nomaden halten sich nicht an ein vorgegebenes Design oder eine Vorlage. Sie knüpfen nach ihrem Gedächtnis und ihrem persönlichen Geschmack. Das Ergebnis ist eine große Vielfalt an Mustern und Farben, die nur auf dem individuellen Geschmack und der Tradition der Knüpferinnen beruht. Ein Vorteil der Schlitz-Kelim-Technik ist, dass man diese Flachgewebe von beiden Seiten verwenden kann.
- Vacuum-clean the rug in the direction of the pile and rotate it frequently. This will help to keep dust and dirt away. Fun Fact: Did you know that 30 minutes of vacuuming burns around 110 calories? Well, now you now! So if you wish, you can see your rug cleaning as a little workout. - Dust off your rug! To free your rug from possible dirt and particles take your rug outside and beat it, "just beat it", in addition to the vacuuming. This will keep your rug fresh and clean. - Rugs are sensitive to daylight, which means that they might change their colour over time if exposed to strong sunlight daily. Keep that in mind if you wish to preserve the vibrant colours of your rug. If you would like to change the colour of your rug, you are more than welcome to place it someplace flooded with sunlight. - In case you spill something onto your rug, and it dries, remove it promptly by scraping it carefully toward the middle of the spot. - In case of a wet stain caused by beverages, make sure not to rub it with a towel. We know, it intuitively feels right, but chances are, that you rub the dirt more in-depth into the pile. Carefully absorb the liquid with paper towels, damp with cloth and mild detergent. - If you're unable to remove spots or stains from your rug, please contact a professional rug cleaner – he will know what to do!
