Wool rugs

Our rugs are made using 100%, locally sourced sheep wool. Each yarn is selected to ensure ideal texture and personality of the final product. Wool rugs are suited for any room of the house and under any furniture item, including chairs, beds, tables, etc., as the natural oil content of wool makes for an incredibly durable rug that is resistant to dirt and moisture.

Yarns

Depending on style, our rugs are hand-knotted or handwoven using a traditional loom. As the finish is not machine programmed, nuances in the size and colour are to be expected. Variations in the yarn are also expected due to the hand-dyeing process.

Due to the handcrafted nature of a woven, kilim-style rug, there may be the occasional loose end that starts to come undone. If this does occur, do not pull or cut it — instead, gently push or tie it back into the weave.

Regular care

For knotted, high-pile rugs, shedding may occur. This is not considered a defect. Over the first few months, shedding will gradually diminish with routine vacuuming. Pile carpets may continue to shed to a smaller degree for the duration of their life.

Routine vacuuming is recommended to preserve the rug’s condition. Use longer strokes to avoid too much back-and-forth motion. Be mindful of edges and corners, as these are weaker links and prone to wear faster due to improper use of the vacuum.

Thorough care

Attend to liquid spills immediately using a clean white cloth to blot excess moisture. Remove any dry or solid matter (food, etc.) by scraping excess away with a spoon. Do not rub.

For stains, we recommend using a clean damp cloth with a little warm water and natural soap to gently work out the stain. Ensure the floor below the rug is thoroughly dried after.

Don’t wet the rug too much, or use hot water, steam or any harsh chemicals. Take care with solutions designed to clean flooring, as splashes may leave permanent marks. Never use salt or vinegar on stains as this can damage the dye.

If a spill or stain cannot be removed by a damp cloth and natural soap, we recommend dry cleaning by a professional cleaner specialised in rugs or carpets.

General care & maintenance tips

  1. Recommended humidity in the room: between 40% and 60%.
  2. To prevent colour differences, do not place furniture or accessories in direct sunlight, and move objects placed on the furniture from time to time. Open your extendable table the first three weeks after installing and afterwards on a regular basis.
  3. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions: Do not place furniture or accessories near heating sources or air-conditioned spaces.
  4. To prevent staining, remove any spills immediately.
  5. When cleaning the surface, always work in the direction of the wood grain.
  6. Use place mats and/or coasters to prevent hot pots and pans, or cold glasses and bottles, from leaving marks on the furniture.
  7. Do not drag the furniture along the floor; always lift the furniture when moving.
  8. Always ensure water solutions used to clean the floor do not come into contact with the furniture’s base, as it may leave permanent marks. For items that feature rubber glides, avoid using alcohol-based cleaners on floors they are in direct contact with. 
  9. Indoor products are not intended for outdoor use. An outdoor product will always indicate so in its name.
  10. Last but not least, we always recommend carefully reading the care instructions specific to your item.
