Authenticity & appraisal
In the world of handmade rugs, authenticity is everything: the fiber that was used, a dye drawn from a plant rather than a factory, and the hand that tied every knot. The Arsin family has stood beside handmade rugs for more than 145 years — since 1880 in Tabriz — and that generations-deep experience is the foundation of a careful, exact appraisal of every rug.
Documentation
What we document for every Arsin rug
| Origin | The rug's provenance and collection |
|---|---|
| Materials | Hand-spun wool, bamboo silk, or cotton warp — depending on the rug |
| Dye type | Vegetal (natural) dye |
| Knot density / raj | The knot density of the weave |
| Size | The rug's exact dimensions |
These specifications are recorded for every Arsin rug and provided to you as documentation with your purchase.
The Arsin warranty
Lifetime warranty of authenticity & quality
Every Arsin rug carries a lifetime warranty of authenticity and quality. It guarantees that the rug you purchased is verified for authenticity, weave quality and condition — and that Arsin's support stays with you for the life of the rug.
Rug appraisal
Appraisal of handmade rugs
Arsin's specialists also appraise handmade rugs — the same capability that underpins the Arsin rug exchange plan. This appraisal serves purposes such as insurance, resale, or inheritance, and is carried out by appointment.
