Care Instructions
Vacuum often and thoroughly:
- Vacuum the rug on both sides and the floor underneath regularly. Never use the brush attachment when vacuuming and adjust the suction strength. Avoid vacuuming the rug's edge/bindings or fringes 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.
Brushing shaggy rugs:
- Rugs with long pile need regular brushing to maintain their 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 more noticeable when the rug is new. However, there is no guarantee that shedding will decrease over time. Vacuum the rug regularly with the brush head retracted 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 promptly. Blot wet stains with dry paper towels.
- Dry stains should be gently scraped from the edge towards the centre of the stain. Then, dampen a clean cloth or sponge with lukewarm water and mild soap. Foaming up 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 stain treatment at home. Tough stains should be handled by professionals, preferably soon after the stain occurs to improve fibre cleanliness.
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 helps the odour disappear quicker.
