Belinera Orange 8' Round Rug

To ensure a proper fit, our experts recommend the "24-30 inch rule" for dining spaces. The rug should extend at least 24 to 30 inches beyond the edges of your table so that chair legs remain securely on the rug even when pulled out. An 8' round rug is a perfect choice for grounding a circular dining set, as the echoing shapes create a balanced and harmonious layout.

Yes, wool is an exceptional material for soundproofing. Its naturally dense and curly fibers absorb more decibels than synthetic alternatives, making it an ideal choice for city dwellers wanting to reduce noise transfer to downstairs neighbors. For maximum acoustic benefits, we suggest layering this rug over a dense felt pad to further dampen vibrations and foot traffic.

This rug features a hand-tufted construction from India, which offers a plush, high-end demeanor and natural charm. According to our quality standards, you can test the density of a rug by pressing your fingers into the fibers; a high-quality wool rug like this one is tightly packed, allowing it to spring back quickly and maintain its shape over time.

Wool is prized for its natural resilience and "crush resistance," meaning the fibers naturally bounce back even after being compressed by furniture or heavy foot traffic. Additionally, wool contains natural oils that help it resist soil and stains better than many synthetic fibers. While this rug requires spot cleaning only, its natural durability makes it a long-lasting investment for a busy home.

Round rugs are a strategic design tool used to "soften" the hard, linear edges of a square or boxy room. They are particularly effective for defining specific "vignettes," such as a reading nook or a cozy seating area, without cutting off the visual floor space. This can make a smaller room or apartment feel more open and fluid compared to the rigid boundaries of a rectangular rug.

Shedding is a natural and expected characteristic of high-quality wool fibers, typically subsiding after 3 to 6 months of use. To maintain the integrity of the medium pile, we recommend vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting. Avoiding vacuums with beater bars is essential, as they can pull at the hand-tufted fibers and prolong the shedding period.
