How are Halınet carpets cleaned?

It depends on the carpet type. Washable carpets can be machine washed on a low spin cycle. Traditionally woven carpets should be cleaned by a professional carpet washing service. Vintage and handwoven carpets should be wiped with a damp cloth and never washed in water.

Which carpet suits which room?

Classic or modern patterns work well in living rooms, soft chenille/cotton carpets in bedrooms, washable carpets in kids' rooms, and washable non-slip carpets in kitchens. For hallways, long narrow runner styles are recommended.

How do I choose the right carpet size?

Standard sizes based on room dimensions: 80×150 cm (small), 120×180 cm (medium), 160×230 cm (large), 200×290 cm (living room), 240×340 cm (large living room). Add about 30 cm of margin around the area your furniture will sit on.

How do shipping and returns work?

Free worldwide shipping. Orders ship within 1-3 business days after confirmation. You can return within 14 days for any reason, no questions asked. The carpet must be unused and in its original packaging.

Hand-Woven Rug Models and Prices

In a hand-knotted rug, the pattern is created by individually knotting yarn onto the warp threads. It's a person, not a loom, who ties each knot; this is why no two examples of the same pattern will ever be exactly identical. The slight variations in rows and shifts in tone are not flaws, but natural traces of the technique — this tonal difference is called abrash in weaving. The knot itself isn't uniform either; the double knot, common in Anatolia, and the single knot affect the tightness of the surface and the sharpness of the pattern differently. There are 11,547 products listed in this collection.

How to Identify a Hand-Knotted Rug

When you hold the rug in your hands or zoom in on the product images, three observations are usually enough:

Backside: In hand-knotted rugs, the pattern is visible from the back, and individual knots can be seen. In machine-made rugs, the back is usually covered with a flat base texture.
Fringe: In hand-knotted rugs, the fringe is a continuation of the rug's warp threads; it cannot be removed. In machine-made rugs, the fringe is often sewn on afterward.
Row alignment: Hand-tied knot rows are not perfectly millimeter-precise; they undulate slightly.

Why So Many Products?

The large number comes not so much from the variety of patterns, but from each pattern being listed individually with multiple size and color variations. The fastest way to narrow your search is to first set the size: our rug size calculator will give you the usable area of your room, and then you can look at patterns. You can make a second narrowing by ground color; light-ground models make a room feel more spacious, while dark-ground ones show less wear in high-traffic areas.

Looking at It Differently

Hand-knotted rugs don't meet every need. If you're looking for a second piece of the same model, a standard pile height, or an easily repeatable size, machine-woven rugs offer a more convenient option. Using a hand-knotted rug in one room and a machine-woven rug in a transition area is also a common and logical choice; the two collections are not rivals, but answers to two different needs.

Can a hand-knotted rug be repaired?

The knotted structure allows for worn areas to be re-knotted using the same technique. This is one of the most tangible advantages of hand-knotting and significantly extends the rug's lifespan. Fringe wear, however, is a separate process and can be renewed without touching the body of the rug.
