Persian Rug Restoration - Before and After

In our last post, we shared the photo above of a worn area we were restoring in a beautiful Persian rug.  After professionally cleaning the rug, we extracted all the compromised knotted pile (though most of it had been worn off a long time ago) and removed the damaged warp and weft.  We rebuilt the foundation and started to reknot the missing pile.  Below is a photo of our Persian rug restoration in process.  

Finally, after several days of reknotting, below is the final result of our Persian rug restoration.  The worn area is once again beautiful and blends into the rest of the rug without calling attention to itself - always the goal of a good restoration. --www.traditionalrugrepair.com
