FAQs

What are the primary materials used in the Tom Dixon Line Rug?

The rug is hand-woven from a blend of natural fibers: 57% Hessian, 24% Cotton, and 19% Polyester.

How should I clean this rug?

For general maintenance, vacuum regularly. However, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the quality and color of the rug.

Is the rug suitable for high-traffic areas?

The durable natural fiber blend makes it suitable for moderate to high-traffic areas like corridors and passageways. However, for very intense traffic, professional cleaning and regular rotation are advised.

Can this rug be used in a bathroom?

While it adds warmth and texture, its size and material composition (natural fibers) might not be ideal for very humid environments like bathrooms without adequate ventilation. It is best suited for living rooms, bedrooms, lounges, or long hallways.

What makes the design 'reversible'?

The rug features a design that looks appropriate and appealing when viewed from either side, offering two distinct aesthetic options for styling your space.

What is the purpose of the orange border?

The contrasting orange border adds a vibrant, graphic touch that provides dynamism and visual interest to the rug's assertive black stripes, designed to give rhythm to long spaces.

How will this rug impact the perception of a long, narrow room?

The rug's dimensions and design are intended to guide the eye, lengthen perspectives, and define circulation zones, making long spaces feel more structured and visually appealing rather than just functional.

Troubleshooting

Rug not lying flat

Ensure the rug is placed on a flat surface. Roll it out and place heavy books or furniture on the edges for several hours to help flatten it. If the problem persists, consider a rug pad for better stability.

Fraying edges

Trim any loose threads with sharp scissors, being careful not to pull the thread. Regular vacuuming and avoiding excessive wear in specific spots can help prevent fraying.

Color fading

Rotate the rug periodically to ensure even exposure to light. Avoid placing it in direct, prolonged sunlight. Clean spills immediately to prevent staining that might require harsh treatments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Unroll the rug carefully upon arrival. If it's initially curved, place heavy objects on the edges for a few hours to help it lie flat. Due to its long, narrow design, consider its placement to best define walkways or areas.

Compatibility:

The rug's blend of natural fibers and polyester makes it compatible with most flooring types, including hardwood, tile, and concrete. Its natural and black tones integrate well with a wide range of color palettes and materials like wood, metal, and stone. It is designed to complement modern and contemporary furniture and lighting.

Care:

Regular vacuuming with a standard vacuum cleaner (without a beater bar if possible, or on a low setting) will help maintain its appearance. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Due to the natural fibers and complex weave, professional cleaning is strongly recommended to preserve the rug's integrity and color. Avoid excessive moisture and direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time. Given its reversible nature, you can periodically flip the rug to ensure even wear.
