FAQs
Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas?
Yes, the durable wool and cotton construction makes it suitable for moderate indoor foot traffic. However, for extremely high-traffic areas, extra care and frequent vacuuming are recommended.
How do I prevent excessive shedding?
Regular vacuuming (without a beater bar) is the best way to manage shedding. Shedding typically reduces over time as the rug settles.
Can I use this rug in a bathroom?
No, this rug is designed for indoor dry areas only and is not suitable for bathrooms or other high-moisture environments.
What does 'hand-tufted' mean?
Hand-tufting is a method where yarns are punched through a backing material by hand using a tufting gun, creating loops on the surface. This rug is hand-tufted and handmade in India.
Will the colors fade over time?
Natural fibers can be susceptible to fading with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. It is best to place the rug away from direct sunbeams to maintain its vibrant colors.
What are the exact dimensions of the rug?
The rug measures approximately 250 cm in length and 160 cm in width, with a thickness of 2 cm.
How often should I clean the rug?
Regular vacuuming (1-2 times per week) is recommended. For a deep clean, professional rug cleaning is advised every 1-2 years, or as needed based on wear and spills.
Troubleshooting
Rug is shedding excessively.
Slight shedding is normal for natural fiber rugs. Vacuum regularly without the beater bar. The shedding should decrease significantly after a few weeks of normal use.
Creases or wrinkles from shipping.
Unroll the rug and let it lay flat in a warm room for several days. You can also try gently rolling the rug in the opposite direction.
Minor spills or stains.
Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stains, use a mild detergent and water solution, blotting gently. Avoid soaking the rug.
Rug appears uneven or bumpy.
Ensure the rug is on a flat surface. Underlying padding can help. If the rug itself has an uneven weave due to its handmade nature, try to smooth it by hand.
