Rug Care Guide

Protecting Your Rug

A handmade natural fiber rug is an investment in beauty and longevity. With the right care, your rug will remain timeless and full of character.

Use a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping, protect your floors, and extend the life of your rug. Place rugs in low-traffic areas where possible, as heavy footfall will wear fibers more quickly. Rotate your rug every few months to even out wear and keep colors looking fresh.

Keep rugs out of direct sunlight, away from heating sources, and never in areas with high moisture. Our rugs are designed for indoor use only.

Vacuuming

Vacuum your rug regularly to maintain its appearance. Use a suction-only vacuum rather than one with a beater brush, which can pull fibers and create fuzz.

Avoid vacuuming over fringes, tassels, or bound edges, as this can cause fraying. Instead, gently clean these areas by hand. If you notice loose fibers, trim them carefully with scissors or tuck them back into the weave.

Vacuum the front of the rug two to three times a year and remember to turn it over and clean the reverse side as well.

Spills and Stains

If a spill occurs, blot immediately with a clean white cloth. Do not rub, as this can push liquid deeper into the fibers and cause staining. Use lukewarm water sparingly to lift the spill, taking care not to oversaturate the rug as this may cause dyes to bleed.

Never use harsh chemicals on rugs. If a stain persists despite your best efforts, we recommend contacting a professional rug cleaner.
