Persian Rug Cleaning in Manhattan.
Manhattan Persians live a particular life. They sit in pre-war classic-sixes on Park and Fifth, in Tribeca lofts and West Village townhouses, in UES co-ops with parquet floors and downtown duplexes with reclaimed pine. Workshop Tabriz in the formal room. A Kashan medallion in the library. Silk Hereke in the primary bedroom. Heirloom Sarouk in the dining room of a family that has been in the same apartment for forty years.
Indoor radiator heat, year-round foot traffic, and humidity cycles take a toll the year-round country house never sees. Every Persian we accept from a Manhattan address is dye-tested, washed individually, and dried flat. Silk Persians are washed alone, never alongside wool. Vegetable-dyed antiques get the slower, hand-controlled antique wash. The same artisans who collect the rug are the ones who return it.
- Antique Tabriz, Kashan, Heriz, Isfahan
- Silk Hereke and Qum for fine collections
- Pre-war pre-existing dye-bleed correction
- Foundation repair on heirloom Sarouk and Bijar
- Moth treatment for stored summer pieces
- Color restoration for sun-faded south-facing rooms
How a Persian rug moves through our atelier.
Seven to fourteen days, calibrated to the age, fiber, and dyes of your rug.
We collect from Manhattan.
Complimentary pickup from Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Tribeca, West Village, SoHo, Lenox Hill, and Midtown East. We wrap your Persian inside the apartment — pre-war classic six, townhouse parlor, downtown loft — and bring it to our Westchester atelier.
Dye-tested, hand-washed alone.
Every Persian is inspected and every color dye-tested before water touches the rug. Antique Tabriz, Kashan, Heriz, Isfahan, Bijar, and Sarouk are washed individually with pH-balanced soap and temperature-controlled water — never in a batch, never on a machine.
Dried flat, returned home.
Dried flat on slatted frames — never tumbled, never hung. Hand-finished, wrapped, and returned to your Manhattan address in better condition than the day it left.

A few of the rugs we've cared for — and the families who trusted us with them.
“They returned an heirloom Tabriz — the colors look exactly as my grandmother described them.”
“A 1920s Heriz I thought was beyond saving came back better than the day my parents bought it.”
“Our clients trust us with eight-figure homes. Horizon is the only atelier I send their rugs to.”
