Care Instructions

Vacuum regularly and thoroughly: 

• Regularly vacuum the rug on both sides and the floor underneath. Never use the brush attachment when vacuuming and adjust the vacuum's suction strength. Avoid vacuuming the rug's edges/binding or fringe as they may get damaged. 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. Therefore, we recommend using rug underlay for grip and floor protection.

Rug combing: 

• Rugs with long pile need regular combing to maintain the fibre's appearance. Use a wide-toothed comb.

Shedding: 

• Wool rugs shed, especially those with pile. This is normal and a characteristic of the fibre. Shedding may be most noticeable when the rug is new. However, there are no guarantees that shedding will decrease over time. Vacuum the rug regularly with a brush head 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: 

• Regularly rotate the rug in the room to ensure even exposure and wear.

Stains: 

• Always remove minor stains immediately. Blot wet stains with dry paper towels.
• For dry stains, gently scrape off the fibre's pile, scraping from the edges towards the centre. Then, use lukewarm water on an uncoloured cloth or sponge. Dampen the stain with a moist uncoloured cloth and mild soap or detergent. Lather the solution with lukewarm water before applying. Do not rub the stain as it may make it harder to remove. Blot up the liquid and repeat until the stain is gone.
• Avoid using strong chemicals for home stain treatment. Tough stains should be handled by a professional, preferably soon after the stain occurs to increase chances of cleaning the fibre effectively.

Rug cleaning by a professional: 

• 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 will dissipate over time. Ventilating or vacuuming the rug will help the odour fade faster.
