The master dyer becomes the true artisan in the village and his skills are passed down through the generations. Preparing the wool before dying is an intricate process, the wool is sheared, cleaned, spun, then cleaned again so the dye can penetrate the fiber. The skins of wool are then submerged into the boiling dye bath and are stirred to produce uniformity. Once dry, it is ready for rugs weaving.
The most desired antique Persian rugs contain natural dyes, which were very prominent prior to 1930.
Aniline (synthetic) rugs dyes were introduced in the late nineteenth century. The colors of rugs not only faded when exposed to sunlight, but ran when washed. The Persian government passed laws in the 1890's prohibiting their importation and use. In the 1930s chrome dyes were introduced which did not fade in sunlight and do not impair the wearing qualities of the rugs, these dyes are still used today. The colors of chrome rugs dyes are harsher than the mellow hue of the natural dyes. Get rugs on the net and get discount on sale.
