Care Instructions
Vacuum regularly and thoroughly:
- Vacuum the rug on both sides and the floor beneath it regularly. Never use the brush attachment when vacuuming and adjust the suction strength. Avoid vacuuming the rug's edge or fringe as it may cause damage. Rugs with pile should be vacuumed in the direction of the pile.
Rug underlay:
- The rug has an unlined back that may be slippery on the floor. Hence, we recommend using rug underlay for anti-slip protection and floor preservation.
Pilling:
- Wool rugs may pill, especially those with pile. This is normal and a characteristic of the fibre. Pilling may be most noticeable when the rug is new. However, there are no guarantees that pilling will decrease over time. Vacuum the rug regularly with a brush attachment to remove excess fibres from production. We also recommend shaking the rug before use to fluff up the pile and remove excess wool.
Rotate the rug:
- Rotate the rug in the room regularly to ensure even exposure and wear.
Stains:
- Always remove minor stains promptly. Blot wet stains with dry paper towels.
- For dry stains, gently scrape the fibres from the stain's edges towards the centre. Then, dampen a clean, colourless cloth or sponge with lukewarm water and mild soap. Foam the solution with lukewarm water before applying. Do not rub the stain as it may become harder to remove. Blot the liquid and repeat until the stain is gone.
- Avoid using strong chemicals for home stain treatment. Tough stains should be handled by professionals, preferably soon after the stain occurs to increase fibre cleaning chances.
Professional rug cleaning:
- Always take your rug to a reputable laundry for professional flat washing. Classic Collection rugs should not be machine or dry cleaned.
Additional information:
- All new rugs have a distinct odour that dissipates over time. Ventilating or vacuuming the rug can expedite this process.
