Hello Keith.

Best bet for cleaning the cushions would be to get in touch with any shop in your area that sells pure wool area rugs, like British India or Persian, and ask them what cleaners they have available and recommend. The longer the company has been in business, the better the help you will get..

Modern carpet cleaners for synthetic fibre carpets are far too aggressive for natural fibres like wool, cotton and linen. It is typically a long process of soak and blotting up with paper towel, so stockpiling a lot of the paper towel is a good idea. Air drying between sessions is also helps you see your progress as wet stains always look worse than when they have dried. Any hot air blowers will set the stains. You may not get 100% out, but should be able to carefully, dramatically, reduce the visible amount of stain.

Cheers,

David
