Location Rancho Mirage, CA
We recently completed a luxury silk rug cleaning in Rancho Mirage, CA for a homeowner with a fine handwoven silk piece that had lost its natural sheen from dust accumulation and delicate fiber wear. Silk rugs require a highly controlled washing process to preserve their luster, texture, and dye integrity.

During the inspection, we tested the dyes for stability, checked for weakened warps, and evaluated areas where the silk pile had begun to matte. Silk fibers react differently than wool—absorbing oils, attracting fine dust, and showing texture changes when not cleaned using the correct method. Knowing this, we customized a low-moisture, pH-balanced plan.
Specialized Silk Washing Process
This rug underwent a gentle, non-toxic silk wash designed specifically for protein-based fibers. Using minimal agitation and a carefully monitored immersion phase, we lifted surface oils and embedded dust without disturbing the pile. The rug was then rinsed with temperature-controlled water and dried flat in a low-airflow environment to maintain its natural drape and sheen.
Results
Once finished, the silk regained its clarity, softness, and signature glow. The homeowner was thrilled to see the rug’s highlights restored without harsh chemicals or fiber stress.
