Alicia Blue 6' x 9' Rug

A 6' x 9' rug is a versatile size that works exceptionally well in both living and sleeping areas. In a bedroom, our sizing guide recommends placing it under the lower two-thirds of a queen-sized bed to ensure a balanced look and a soft landing for your feet. In a living room, this size is ideal for anchoring a central seating arrangement, such as a sofa and coffee table, ensuring the front legs of your furniture rest on the rug to define the space.

Yes. While the Alicia rug features a contemporary geometric pattern inspired by traditional Moroccan tiles, its navy and ivory color palette is timeless. This contrast allows it to serve as a sophisticated foundation in both modern and transitional spaces. In more traditional rooms, the geometric pattern adds a touch of visual interest and texture without overwhelming classic furniture pieces.

While the plush shag texture offers a cozy and safe surface for children to play on, the deep pile can act as a trap for pet hair and small debris. For this reason, we recommend placing a shag rug in lower-traffic areas such as bedrooms or formal sitting rooms. However, because the rug is constructed from durable, stain-resistant synthetic materials, it can withstand occasional spills and the rigors of a busy home better than more delicate materials.

To preserve the "like-new" texture of your shag rug, our care experts recommend vacuuming regularly using a vacuum with a high-pile setting. It is crucial to turn off the beater bar or use a suction-only attachment to prevent the rotating brushes from pulling or tangling the long, soft fibers. For localized cleaning, always blot spills immediately with a dry cloth and a mild detergent, as suggested in our material care guides.

This rug is hand-tufted with high-quality synthetic fibers, such as polyester, which are specifically chosen for their exceptional softness and durability. Unlike natural wool, these fibers are naturally resistant to staining and fading, making them a more practical choice for active households. Additionally, synthetic shag rugs are known for their low-shedding properties, ensuring your living space remains clean while providing that luxurious, deep-pile feel.

To keep your rug looking its best, we recommend occasional "fluffing." You can gently rake the fibers with a rug rake or simply shake the rug outdoors to restore its original volume. Regular vacuuming (without a beater bar) also helps prevent fibers from becoming flattened by foot traffic. For long-term maintenance, a professional cleaning every 12-18 months is advised to remove embedded dust that can contribute to fiber matting.
