ANTI-SLIP/UNDERLAY . RUG HANGING . WRITTEN VALUATIONS

Made of modern materials in its construction, this underlay product carries the ‘Confidence in Textiles’ Certification, which ensures it can be used safely on smooth/hard flooring surfaces such as: wood, stone, marble, tiles, laminates, textile flooring surfaces such as: vinyl and fitted carpet, as well as being suitable to use with under-floor heating systems.

Unlike older varieties of underlay, which overtime and with prolonged use, may disintegrate or thin out quickly, our professional anti-slip rug underlay product utilises a micro-fibre finish to ensure it grips securely, while cushioning and protecting your weavings. Ultimately, this prevents kilims, rugs and oriental carpets from rucking, creeping, slippage or creases and ridges forming.

Underlay is cut to size for each individual kilim, rug or oriental carpet, which may come as one or more pieces ~ depending on the size required. It is easy to carry, fit and lay out at home under your piece and has the added bonus of being machine washable making it infinitely re-usable, with a longevity of use.

Please contact us to discuss your underlay requirements. Meanwhile, you can view our videos (right) on how to layout your underlay on either a hard floor or carpeted surface once purchased, where Terms and Conditions apply.

RUG & TAPESTRY WALL HANGING TECHNIQUE

We undertake an ingenious, durable and concealed wall hanging technique that was devised by Anas, The Oriental Rug Gallery Ltd's Rug and Oriental Carpet Specialist, for any type of rug, tapestry or textile, in any size.

The piece will lie flush to the wall, when mounted on either picture hooks or screws (not supplied) secured to a wall. Alternatively, should you decide to lay your rug, carpet or tapestry to view on the floor, the hanging rail can be easily removed from its secure casing and the piece will lie flat on any floor surface.

Anas will carefully assess the size, weight, condition and value of each individual piece for our hanging technique service prior to any work being undertaken, to ensure it can be properly and evenly supported and conserved by the hanging apparatus.

We are happy to discuss your rug wall hanging requirements, so please contact us for more information.

We believe that every hand-woven rug, Oriental carpet and tapestry is a treasured piece of craftsmanship, and would therefore benefit from professional and rug specialist recognition, with our Written Rug Valuation Service.

Whether you have inherited a family heirloom, purchased a weaving abroad, house an investment piece, or just want to know more about the history and value of your rug, oriental carpet and tapestry and the details if it has a woven inscription, we can help by undertaking a certified, true and accurate Written Rug Valuation. Or if you have experienced a flood, fire, theft or damage of your rug, oriental carpet or tapestry and require a professional Written Valuation as proof of your investment for insurance purposes, our specialist Written Rug Valuation Service is here to help.

Our professional, insurance-approved Written Rug Valuation Service is undertaken by Anas – the Gallery’s Rug and Oriental Carpet Specialist with over 30 years rug expertise, knowledge, skills and authority in the rug and carpet field, and as a fourth-generation rug expert of a 100-year-old family rug business. Sandre – the Gallery’s Decorative Woven Arts Creative contributes to the process with Art History knowledge, research and writing skills, and her design and decorative weavings experience.

The Oriental Rug Gallery Ltd's Written Rug Valuation service is suitable for all types of rugs, oriental carpets and tapestries, where a variation of this form can be undertaken for Loss Adjustment Reporting purposes. This service normally takes 4-5 working days to complete, once the actual piece has first been reviewed, assessed, catalogued and photographed by us.

If customers are unable to bring their pieces to us for the Written Rug Valuation review and assessment process, we can still complete a valuation ~ provided we are supplied with good quality, detailed photographic images of the front and back of the piece. Or if a Replacement Valuation for an insurance claim is needed, a series of detailed images can be sent via an insurance company acting on the cutomer's behalf. Please contact us for the guidelines. Here, requests are assessed on an individual basis, where a variation on the form of the above Written Rug Valuation/Loss Adjustment Reporting Service may then be undertaken.

Our professional Written Rug Valuation documentation provides an in-depth review and thorough detailed assessment of your rug or Persian and Oriental Carpet, as well as a comprehensive listing of rug specialist information including the value of the piece in the present UK market. Our valuation process normally takes 2-3 working days to complete.

Please kindly note: as we undertake a professional written rug valuation service, with signed and certified documentation of works for our customers, we are, therefore, unable to provide email or jotted down notations that can neither act as an official valuation of the piece nor as a validated note assessment of a rug, carpet or tapestry. Nor can we act on requests for estimated valuations and/or details of rug images proffered via phone, text or emails; nor supply samples of this professional service thereof.

If you would like to go ahead with our Written Rug Valuation Service, please email this request in writing and we will send you the guidelines on how to proceed and the prices for this service.
