Revita is not traditional rug washing. Revita revitalizes rugs, purging them of dirt, bacteria, dust mites, allergens, stains and odors. No harsh chemicals. In fact, Revita removes the toxic residue le by previous rug cleaners and gently strips away the brittle calcium deposited in your rug by the well water they used. A revitalized rug is so er, richer and healthier than ever before. Utterly clean. You’ll smile when you see and feel the di erence. Revita is a new technology using ultra-puri ed water and purely organic additives to restore the life and vitality of area rugs, even the most delicate, antique silk Persians and Orientals. Miraculously, Revita costs about the same as traditional rug washing. But technology is always like that, isn’t it? Giving us safe, a ordable solutions that were impossible only yesterday.

  • An Investigation and Comparison of Strength Against the Compressive
    ISSN (Print) : 2319-8613 ISSN (Online) : 0975-4024 Behzad Nikandish et al. / International Journal of Engineering and Technology (IJET) An Investigation and Comparison of Strength against the Compressive loads (Static and Dynamic) in 4 Iranian, Chinese, Uzbek, and Turkmen Types of Silk Used in Iran’s Hand-woven Carpets Behzad Nikandish Master student of Carpet, Kashan University Gholamreza Saleh Alavi Corresponding author, Faculty member of Carpet Department, Kashan University Email: [email protected] Abstract: The silk yarns are mostly used in carpet’s piles. Among the important attributes of the yarns used in the carpet’s piles is the strength against the static and dynamic load. In the current study, three woven samples from each of the four types as Iranian, Chinese, Turkmen, and Uzbek silks were extracted and through the required tests, the above-mentioned attributes were investigated and compared for them. The results indicate that against the static loads, the Chinese silk has the highest strength, and the Uzbek and Iranian silks are next, with a narrow difference. The Turkmen is ranked last in terms of strength. Also, the Iranian silk did best in strength against the dynamic loads, and it had the highest strength, with the Turkmen, Chinese, and Uzbek silks being after it with a marginal difference. The current study is conducted by the use of documentary and laboratory methods. Keywords: Silk, hand-woven carpet, Strength against static load, Strength against the dynamic load. 1- Introduction: The silk yarns have been long used in the production of beautiful and precious fabrics. These yarns, due to their unique attributes, are being used in many other industries.

  • Rug Buying Guide Find the Perfect Rug for Any Space
    Rug Buying Guide Find the perfect rug for any space. Learn more about rug construction, sizes, material, style, and care. The right rug can do more than just help define a space. It can protect your floors from wear and tear while adding to a visually appealing aesthetic with its colors and patterns. However, purchasing a rug is no easy task. You must consider your lifestyle, placement of the rug, design of the rug, and what you will need from a rug. We’ve compiled the ultimate guide to help you find the exact rug that will fulfill the needs of your space. Rug Weaves The weave of a rug can determine the feel, look, and durability overtime. Although rugs can now be made more efficiently, there are still many craftsmen who tediously weave rugs by hand. Hand-Knotted Hand-knotted rugs are very labor intensive with lasting results. They are very durable and can last for over 20 years with minimal shedding. The most common fiber used is wool. Because hand-knotted rugs are very labor intensive to create, they can take on average 5-7 months to be completed, sometimes even longer. The time and labor put into creating a hand-knotted rug does make it considerably pricier than other. Weavers will begin by hand tying knots onto warps before tying tufts of wool around the warp creating knots. The end of knots create the pile. Wefts are then threaded through in order to tighten the knots. This creates the foundation of the rug. The more knots per inch, the more intricate the pattern, and usually the more durable the knots will be.

  • Coping with Protracted Displacement
    \ WORKING PAPER 2\ 2018 Coping with protracted displacement How Afghans secure their livelihood in Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan Elke Grawert \ BICC Katja Mielke \ BICC \ WORKING PAPER 2 \ 2018 COPING WITH PROTRACTED DISPLACEMENT \ E. GRAWERT & K. MIELKE SUMMARY This Working Paper addresses the situation of Afghans before, during and after their displacements in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran. Its aim is: (1) to under- stand how internally displaced lower-class Afghans, refugees who have returned and Afghan refugees staying in Pakistan and Iran perceive their current living conditions and what activities they pursue towards securing their families’ livelihood; (2) to establish the influence of socio- economic class dispositions on the displaced persons’ abilities and agency and on the strategic forging of networks in translocal space as a way of securing their livelihood, and (3) to contribute towards elaborating an analytical livelihood approach that can explain agency in protracted displacement situations caused by violent conflict—thereby going beyond established assumptions of migration and conventional refugee studies. The authors elaborate on the significance of translocal networks for Afghans as a livelihood pillar and consider ‘established–outsider relations’ as enabling condition. The authors argue that both dimensions are constitutive for a liveli- hood approach that has analytical value in conflict contexts. The evidence- based identification of these two components for a comprehensive livelihood approach in displacement contexts should subsequently guide assistance to displaced people. Entry points are the support of translocal networks and col- lective approaches to securing livelihoods (e.g. targeting extended families) and the equal consideration of host and (re)integration communities in assis- tance programming.
