Rug Repair Carpet Repair Securing Fringes

Most of the rugs we receive for cleaning and repair are damaged on the fringes tassels at the ends. This happens because of using the rugs on the floor for a long time or improper vacuuming of the rugs. The fringes at the ends and selvages on the sides are like the walls which keep the roof intact. So if damaged, they have to be taken care of and repaired/secured. In this short video with slow motions we show how one of master weavers secures an end of an antique Lilian Lilihan carpet.
