Madder Red Dye

Persian Hamadan Rug Dyes

The most common source for red dye is the madder plant which is easy to cultivate. The dyestuff is found in the roots. The roots are removed from the ground, dried and then ground into a powder. Madder contains at least six different dyestuffs, three major and three minor. Bewteen them they produce a remarkable range of colours. The hue is determined by the three major components, purpurin, pseudopurpurin and alizarin. The amount of each present on the wool fibre depends on four variables; the mordant used, the quantity of madder present in the dye bath, its acitity or alkalinity, and its temerature. All dyeing with madder requires the wool to be treated with a mordant, such as potassium aluminium sulphate (alum). The full spectrum of madder colours includes pink, rose , apricot, scarlet, rust-red, numerous brown-reds, purple and brown-purple.

After trying rug cleaning companies that come to your home to clean my rug and never feeling fully satisfied with the clean I finally tried Oriental Rug Spa and I am so glad I did. Dan was great in providing information about the process and setting my expectations as it was going to be a challenging job. They did a fantastic job and my rug looks almost new! 100% recommend to anyone considering using their services. I will only use them for cleaning my rug in the future.

We have used a few cleaners for our rugs over the years and ORS rates as one the best. They did a great job of bringing back to life our grimy Titetan hall runner that had suffered from years of mucky shoes. The service couldn't be more personable which makes paying far less painful - even if it was reasonablly priced. Why 4 stars? Nobody gets 5.

I had two large Wilton rugs cleaned by this Company.
They were 19 years old and a little flat and slightly stained.
They came back totally renewed. The pile was lifted and
colours restored. I would recommend this Rug Spa.

Oriental Rugs were excellent.They arrived on time and provided 3 alternative estimates. We selected one there and then and the rug was taken away.

It was returned within the promised time frame and it is now back in position looking and feeling very much better.

I had three Turkish rugs cleaned and mended, and I’m really pleased with the service. The rugs were picked up from my home and then delivered back to storage, which was perfect as my house is being refurbished. Great communication throughout and very easy to deal with. The rugs look fantastic – highly recommend!

The service from ORS was very professional and great value. Dan explained how he would treat my rug which has been a centrepiece in my homes for over 25 years. The results were beautiful. The sheen and colours have been restored and the pile is lovely and soft. The turnaround was timely and the premises were pretty straightforward to access. I'm delighted with their service.

Thank you Oriental Rug Spa for making such a wonderful job cleaning my John Lewis 100% wool duck egg blue rug 3m x 2m.
Your service was excellent from start to finish the rug was beautifully clean, the pile was totally revitalised and it smelt so fresh again after my Border Terrier had a little accident on it! I would highly recommend your service from my experience.

Excellent service. The owner was very honest in his appraisal of a large stain on my Afghan rug. It was quite bad and he wasn’t sure it could be 100% cleaned. In the end He did a first class job. I Highly recommend this company. Repairing an oriental carpet isn’t cheap but the care and professionalism invested in a much loved and valuable carpet by Dan is definitely worth the outlay.

Thank you for the expert clean up of my wine stained beautiful afghan rug. It’s completely restored and there’s no trace left of the spill. Your communications were very good too!

What an amazing company. They were so excellent and easy to work with. Communication was really superb. We have to say it’s the best service we have had for a very long time. Instructions to wrap up the rug for the collection service was spot on. The rug looks great too and will be down on the floor again very soon.
We were flooded so there is enough stress and strain around you and to have a well organised company like Dan and his crew at Oriental Rug Spa was a total bonus. Thank you to all of you.
