Abilu Green 5' x 7'6 Rug

Because wool is a natural fiber, it is important to blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent the liquid from soaking deep into the weave. Based on our material care expertise, you should avoid rubbing the area, as this can fray the fibers or push the stain further in. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild detergent with cool water, but always consult the specific care tag on the rug for the best results.

Yes, initial shedding is a normal and expected characteristic of new wool rugs. This occurs as excess loose fibers from the hand-looming process work their way to the surface. Frequent vacuuming—especially during the first few weeks—will help eliminate these fibers. You will find that the shedding diminishes significantly over time with regular wear and proper maintenance.

The sweater-weave refers to a specific hand-looming technique that creates a thick, multi-tonal texture reminiscent of a high-quality knit. This construction offers a significantly softer and more cushioned feel underfoot than traditional flatweave or machine-made rugs. It is an ideal choice for areas where comfort is a priority, such as a bedroom or a cozy nursery.

Wool is widely considered one of the most durable natural fibers for flooring. This rug is hand-loomed, a process that ensures high fiber density and exceptional resilience. Wool fibers possess a natural elasticity that allows them to "bounce back" after being compressed by foot traffic or furniture, ensuring the rug maintains its plushness and structure over years of use.

This rug is perfectly scaled for smaller living spaces common in urban environments. In an apartment, a 5' x 7'6 rug is ideal for anchoring a small seating arrangement or defining a dining area without overwhelming the room. For a home office, its dimensions provide ample coverage under a desk and chair, while the natural wool material provides the added benefit of noise reduction and insulation, making the workspace feel more private and comfortable.

To protect the craftsmanship of this rug, we recommend setting your vacuum’s height gauge to its highest setting. Powerful vacuums with a beater bar or a low-height setting can be too aggressive, potentially snagging the hand-loomed sweater-weave or damaging the delicate bound edges and corners. Regular, gentle vacuuming on the correct setting is the most effective way to preserve the rug’s appearance and longevity.
