Jahann and Sons Persian Rugs
Expertise
I can answer questions and give advice on the purchasing of Oriental carpets and the care of said carpets. I am more than happy to view photos and give approximate appraisals (I cannot be completely accurate with just a photo) via email on carpets that you have or would like to buy. I can also help with decorating decisions where rugs are concerned, and because I do have a store, I can help find you something if you`re having trouble finding it yourself.
Experience in the area
My family has had a Persian carpet store in the Washington, DC metropolitan area for nearly 30 years (www.jahannandsons.com). I grew up with rugs.

Hi Kevin, The rugs you have each have a different issue, and there are different remedies for each as well. The small Persian rug you have probably used to curl under on the edges. This happens in
