Restoring Time with Thread
The Process
Observation
Every project begins in silence. I study the rug’s structure, its wool, dyes, and wear — understanding what has changed and what must remain.
Repair
Damaged areas are rewoven by hand, using wool that matches the original spin and texture. The knots are tied in the same spirit as the weaver’s — slow, precise, and mindful.
Integration
Rather than hiding age, I blend the new with the old. The goal is harmony — a restoration that feels inevitable, not imposed.
Philosophy
Preserve, Don’t Replace
To restore a rug is to honor its story.
I never aim to make a rug look new — only whole.
A careful balance of engineering precision and artistic empathy guides every decision, ensuring the piece retains both strength and soul.
Finally
Each restored rug becomes a dialogue — between its original weaver, its past life, and the hands that now continue its story.
Through this process, I hope to keep heritage alive — one thread, one hue, one patient knot at a time.
