Berga Beige 5'6 x 8'6 Rug

This dimensions of this rug (approximately 5.5' x 8.5') make it an incredibly versatile mid-size option. For a contemporary living room, it is the ideal scale to anchor a smaller seating arrangement with the front legs of your sofa and chairs resting on the rug. In a bedroom setting, this size fits perfectly when placed horizontally under the lower two-thirds of a queen bed, providing a soft, warm landing for your feet on either side.

Based on our expertise with natural fibers, we recommend vacuuming your rug regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar turned off to prevent pulling the hand-woven fibers. For spills, our care guide suggests blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth and using only mild detergent with cool water for spot cleaning. Because this rug features a two-level pile, regular vacuuming is essential to keep the subtle checkerboard texture defined and free of debris.

This rug utilizes a specialized weaving technique to create an elevated, two-level pile that brings the subtle checkerboard pattern to life through physical texture rather than just color contrast. This adds a sophisticated, three-dimensional element to contemporary spaces. The earthy beige palette serves as a neutral foundation that can help a smaller room feel more open and airy while adding enough visual interest to prevent the floor from looking flat.

The GoodWeave certification is a hallmark of ethical production and high-quality craftsmanship. It serves as an independent guarantee that the rug was produced without child labor and that the weaving community was supported through fair-trade practices. Choosing a GoodWeave-certified wool rug ensures that your home decor aligns with global standards for social responsibility and ethical manufacturing.

Wool is one of the most resilient natural fibers available, known for its inherent elasticity and ability to bounce back after being compressed by footsteps or furniture. This rug’s hand-woven construction further enhances its structural integrity. Additionally, wool contains natural lanolin, which acts as a protective barrier, making the fibers more resistant to dirt and staining compared to many synthetic alternatives.

Wool is a highly breathable "intelligent" fiber that naturally regulates moisture. In dry inland climates, it helps prevent static electricity buildup, while in more humid environments, its ability to absorb and release moisture helps it maintain a comfortable feel underfoot. For homes in high-humidity coastal areas, we recommend ensuring the room has proper airflow to take full advantage of wool's natural breathability and resistance to mildew.
