What Is a Prayer Rug (Prayer Mat)?
A prayer rug (prayer mat) is a clean, specially woven rug used for prostration during prayer. Traditional prayer rugs feature an arched motif at the center representing the mihrab niche, which indicates the direction of the mosque's qibla. When laying out the rug, the tip of this niche is positioned toward the qibla, making it easier for the worshipper to find the right direction. The standard single-person prayer mat size of 80 x 125 cm provides ample room for the head, hands, and knees during prostration. In the Topkapı Prayer Rug Collection, the niche design is finely detailed with lantern (mosque lamp), column, and floral motifs inspired by traditional Ottoman-Turkish carpet art. These centuries-old motifs give the prayer rug both spiritual meaning and aesthetic depth, making the Topkapı Prayer Rug an elegant choice for daily worship, trousseaus, and gifts.
What Is Viscose?
Viscose is a fiber derived from the cellulose of trees and plants. Since natural cellulose is processed and turned back into fiber during production, viscose is also known as a “regenerated cellulose fiber.” It is prized for its silk-like softness, natural sheen, and silky surface that reflects light. Unlike fully synthetic fibers such as acrylic or polypropylene, viscose reflects light at multiple angles, creating a vibrant luster that changes with movement, and it softens with use. In the Topkapı Prayer Rug Collection, 100% viscose is combined with a dense weave of 2,000,000 knots to create a fine, lustrous, highly detailed surface. The sheen of viscose highlights the fine details and color transitions of the classic niche design, especially in well-lit spaces.

How Do You Clean a Viscose Prayer Rug?
Topkapı prayer rugs made of 100% viscose should only be cleaned by professional rug-cleaning companies. Since viscose is a cellulose fiber of natural origin (regenerated), it is sensitive to water and excessive moisture. Please avoid machine washing, washing with detergent at home, scrubbing with a wet brush, and steam cleaning. For everyday care, use a vacuum cleaner on a low-suction setting and gently dab any stains with a slightly damp cloth. When storing the prayer rug for an extended period, fold it and keep it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its silky sheen, fine pattern, and vibrant colors for a long time.

Protect Its Elegance
To preserve the original splendor and silky texture of Carpetdocia’s handwoven creations made with natural fibers—which add value to your living space—for generations, a careful care routine is essential.
Immediate Action and Liquid Spills
When a liquid spills, timing is critical. Using a clean, slightly damp cloth, blot the liquid gently from the surface without rubbing. Always work in the direction of the rug’s pile (the natural direction in which the fibers lie). Rubbing can damage the shape of delicate fibers such as TENCEL™ and viscose. If in doubt, stop immediately.
Routine Care and Light Balance
For your weekly cleaning routine, always use a vacuum cleaner with low suction. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance how natural yarns react to light and prevent uneven changes in color (fading), we recommend rotating your rug every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Care (Professional Cleaning)
Fine textures such as handwoven fibers, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the rug’s silky sheen and structural integrity. For a thorough clean, seek help only from professional rug care centers specializing in natural fibers.
