Sources and interpretation
We link to the museum or specialist source behind specific historical and care claims when applicable. General room-planning advice expresses an editorial approach. Worked dimensions show the assumptions so readers can repeat the calculation with their own furniture.
Limits of a general guide
A care label and manufacturer’s instructions take priority over general advice. Antique attribution, valuation, dye testing, structural repairs and complex cleaning require a qualified professional who can examine the textile. Our content does not replace that inspection.
Authorship and AI assistance
Articles are published under Carpet Mahal. AI tools are used in producing this website and its illustrations. We do not invent named experts, field visits, first-hand product tests or workshop relationships. Illustrative layouts are marked as such and are not dimensioned installation drawings.
Advertising
AdSense publisher verification is included, while ad-delivery scripts are currently paused pending consent setup. If advertising is enabled later, an advertisement will not imply that Carpet Mahal has tested or endorsed the product. Google approval is separate from including verification code.
Updates and corrections
Publication and update dates describe actual content work. If a fact or calculation appears wrong, use our contact form and include the page address and the point in question. We welcome clear evidence that improves a guide.
