FAQs
Is this rug suitable for pets?
The rug's durable Kilim weave can withstand some wear and tear, but pet claws may snag the fibers. Regular vacuuming and prompt spot cleaning of accidents are recommended.
Can I use this rug outdoors?
This rug is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements like direct sunlight and moisture can damage the fibers and fade the colors.
How do I clean spills quickly?
For fresh spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with a very mild detergent and blot gently.
What does 'Kilim' weave mean?
Kilim is a traditional flatweave rug construction technique that does not use a knotted pile, resulting in a durable and often reversible rug.
Will the colors run?
While efforts are made to secure the dyes, it's recommended to avoid excessive moisture and prolonged direct sunlight to prevent color bleeding or fading.
What are the dimensions of this rug?
This specific rug measures 90 cm in height and 60 cm in width.
Is the rug reversible?
Kilim rugs are often reversible due to their flatweave construction, but patterns might vary slightly on the reverse side, and the primary design is intended for the top.
Troubleshooting
Rug has creases from shipping.
Unroll the rug completely and let it sit in a warm room for 24-48 hours. Placing heavy objects on the creases can also help flatten them.
Shedding fibers.
Initial shedding is normal for natural fiber rugs. Vacuum regularly as directed. The shedding should decrease over time.
Color appears slightly different than expected.
Colors may vary due to the handmade nature and block printing process. Lighting conditions also affect perceived color. Review product images and descriptions carefully.
Small imperfections in the pattern.
These are characteristic of the manual block printing technique and contribute to the unique, artisanal quality of the rug. They are not defects.

Care:
- Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly using a low-power setting without the beater brush to prevent damage to the fibers.

- Deep Cleaning: Professional cleaning is recommended for a thorough wash to maintain the integrity of the materials and dyes. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
- Rotation: Rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear.
