Certificates of Authenticity for Hand-Knotted Rugs
Every hand-knotted rug is a genuine one-of-a-kind piece. To provide clear documentation of its provenance, materials and craftsmanship, Jakobson Carpets issues a certificate of authenticity for selected rugs.
It accompanies your rug as a reliable record and provides additional reassurance – at the time of purchase, for future reference and for your own documentation.
Documented Authenticity for Greater Peace of Mind
A certificate of authenticity records the key characteristics of your rug in writing. At a glance, you can see which materials were used, where the rug comes from and which handcrafted features distinguish it.
For high-quality hand-knotted rugs in particular, this additional documentation provides reassurance and gives you a clear reference for your records long after the purchase.
