Brunelle Brown 8' x 11' Rug

This rug is hand-tufted from 100% polyester, a synthetic fiber prized for its exceptional softness and inherent stain resistance. Unlike some natural fibers, polyester is non-absorbent, meaning liquid spills tend to sit on the surface rather than soaking in, allowing for easier cleanup. It is also highly resistant to fading, ensuring the vibrant brown, red, and yellow geometric tones remain sharp even in sunlit rooms. Based on our expertise with high-traffic materials, polyester is a preferred choice for its combination of comfort and long-term color retention.

The vibrant palette of brown, yellow, red, and pink makes this rug a perfect focal point for contemporary interiors. In a room with neutral-colored furniture, such as a beige or gray sofa, the rug introduces dynamic energy and warmth. The intricate geometrical motif adds a sophisticated, structured look that complements modern, clean-lined furniture while anchoring the space with a unique, creative flair.

To preserve the vibrant colors and hand-tufted texture, you should vacuum the rug regularly without a beater bar if possible. For liquid spills, our care guide recommends blotting the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth to remove as much moisture as possible; never rub the spill, as this can damage the fibers. For a deep refresh or stubborn stains, we advise a professional rug cleaning service to maintain the structural integrity and ensure the intricate geometrical border remains crisp.

Yes, hand-tufted rugs offer a superior balance of craftsmanship and durability. This construction involves punching yarns through a fabric backing to create a plush, dense pile that stands up well to daily foot traffic. To maintain its integrity and appearance, our care guidelines recommend vacuuming regularly to prevent dirt from becoming embedded. For homes with significant activity, the hand-tufted density ensures the rug springs back quickly and resists the fiber gaps often found in lower-quality alternatives.

An 8' x 11' area rug is a versatile size that serves as an excellent foundation for larger spaces. In a living room, it is ideally placed so that the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs rest on the rug, which anchors the furniture grouping and prevents a "floating" look. For bedrooms, this size fits perfectly under a queen or king-sized bed, extending far enough from the sides and foot to provide a soft, warm landing for your feet. Following the "18-inch rule," we recommend leaving about 18 inches of bare floor between the edges of the rug and your walls to maintain a balanced, intentional look.

We highly recommend using a quality rug pad underneath this rug. A pad provides essential non-slip safety on smooth floors and adds an extra layer of cushioning that protects both the rug’s backing and your hardwood or tile. Additionally, for urban apartments or multi-story homes, a rug pad combined with the dense polyester pile provides significant noise reduction, helping to dampen the sound of footsteps and movement.

Absolutely. Synthetic materials like polyester are highly recommended for busy households. The tightly woven fibers are resistant to snagging from pet claws and are much easier to spot-clean than natural fibers like wool or jute. Furthermore, the bold, multi-colored geometric pattern is excellent at masking minor wear and tear or small messes between cleanings, making it a practical and stylish choice for "creative color palettes" in active family rooms.
