Question 1

How do I choose the right size and shape?

Accepted Answer

Size it to the furniture, not the floor: at least 18 in shows beyond the sides and foot of a bed, and under a dining table it runs 24 in (60 cm) past the edge. Sahab comes in three shapes, Classic, Round and Runner, in a standard size or a custom size priced as you type. The size guide has plans room by room.

Question 2

Will I hear from you while it's made?

Accepted Answer

We write at every stage: the order confirmation, the day knotting begins, the day your rug is finished, and tracking when it ships.

Question 3

Does Sahab read soft and cool, or flat and muted?

Accepted Answer

Soft and clear. One dusty, mid-weight tone runs across the whole rug with no motif or border, and a cross forms at the center where the nap turns. The eye reads it the way it reads a sky, through small changes in the wool: a patch lighter here, a shade cooler there.

Question 4

Is Sahab hand-knotted, even with no pattern?

Accepted Answer

Sahab is knotted by hand in 100% natural wool at a high density. On a solid rug nothing hides the wool, so the density shows as depth and evenness.

Question 5

Where should I put Sahab?

Accepted Answer

Sahab earns its place as a runner alongside the bed, since it keeps the bedside calm. Medium or shag pile feels softest under bare feet there. Try it in an entryway as well.

Question 6

Which pile makes a solid field look most like sky?

Accepted Answer

Medium 0.8 in (2 cm) or shag 1.2 in (3 cm). Longer pile shows more of the small light and shade changes that make the field read like cloud, and the central cross deepens. Short 0.4 in (1 cm) keeps the field more even and the cross faint.

Question 7

Will a solid rug like Sahab show marks?

Accepted Answer

A solid field shows more than a pattern, pale tones most. Vacuum weekly with suction only, along the pile, and blot spills at once with cool water from the edge inward. New wool sheds a little in its first weeks, and that settles. The care guide covers the rest.

Question 8

What if I want Sahab in a different shade?

Accepted Answer

Pick it from our 30 wool shades and the preview shows Sahab that way in seconds. Approve it and the weavers make that version, at 10% above the size's price and with one extra week of production.
