Ezohra Multi 8'6 x 11'6 Rug

Yes, wool is one of the most resilient natural fibers available for home decor. This rug features a thick, luxurious wool pile that is naturally elastic, meaning the fibers have a "crimp" that allows them to bounce back after being compressed by foot traffic or heavy furniture. Additionally, wool contains natural lanolin, which provides a light, built-in resistance to staining and soil, making it an excellent long-term investment for busy households.

Wool is a highly breathable, natural material that can actually help regulate indoor humidity by absorbing and releasing moisture vapor. However, in exceptionally humid or coastal environments, we recommend ensuring the room has consistent airflow and using a high-quality rug pad. This prevents moisture from being trapped between the rug's backing and your flooring, protecting both the rug and your home from musty odors or mildew.

Unlike standard flat-weave or machine-made rugs, this hand-tufted rug is crafted by artisans who guide a tufting tool through a canvas backing to create a plush, dense pile. The "carved" details mentioned in the description refer to a technique where the pile is hand-sheared at varying heights. This creates a daringly dimensional texture that enhances the abstract "brush stroke" pattern, giving the rug a high-end, artistic appeal that feels as substantial as it looks.

To preserve the integrity of the hand-tufted wool fibers, we recommend vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting. It is critical to avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar or rotating brush, as the aggressive spinning can agitate the tufts, causing excessive shedding or "sprouting" (where individual loops pull upward). For spills, our care experts suggest blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth and using only mild detergent with cool water for spot cleaning.

This "mansion size" rug is ideal for anchoring large furniture groupings in spacious rooms. In a living room setting, its 11'6" length is generous enough to ensure that all front legs of your sofa and accent chairs sit comfortably on the rug, which prevents a "floating" look and defines the seating zone. If used in a dining room, this size easily accommodates a large table and chairs, ensuring that even when guests pull their chairs out, the legs remain on the rug's surface for a stable and cohesive layout.

Shedding is a completely normal characteristic of high-quality, hand-tufted wool rugs and is not a manufacturing defect. Because wool is a natural staple fiber, small fragments will work their way to the surface during the first 3 to 6 months of use. Regular vacuuming (without a beater bar) will manage this process. Over time, the shedding will significantly subside, leaving you with a durable, soft, and stabilized pile.
