Fletcher Loft Black 5'3 x 7'10 Rug

Based on our expertise with synthetic textiles, we recommend regular vacuuming to remove dust and maintain the texture of the fibers. For accidental spills, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth to prevent the stain from setting. Our general care guidelines for polyester-blend rugs suggest spot-cleaning with a mild detergent and cool water when necessary. These synthetic fibers are specifically chosen for their ability to withstand the wear and tear of a busy household better than many natural materials.

This rug is artfully engineered from an innovative blend of acrylic and polyester fibers to create the course, realistic impression of "hair-on-hide." Unlike natural hides, which can be sensitive to moisture and prone to curling or shedding over time, this synthetic alternative offers superior durability and a soft, touchable texture. It provides the sought-after look of premium leather while remaining resilient and easy to maintain in a variety of home environments.

This rug features a supple suede backing that adds a luxurious, high-end finish to the underside of the floorcovering. This backing helps the rug retain its unique animal-hide shape and provides a soft layer of protection for your floors. While the suede offers some natural grip, we recommend pairing it with a quality rug pad to prevent shifting and provide additional cushioning, especially when placed on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile.

With dimensions of 5'3" x 7'10", this rug is an excellent scale for compact living areas, such as an urban apartment, a dedicated home office, or a cozy reading nook. To create a balanced look in a smaller room, we recommend leaving approximately 18 inches of bare floor between the edges of the rug and the walls. Anchoring the rug under the front legs of a sofa or accent chair can help define the seating area and make the space feel larger and more cohesive.

Animal print is widely regarded by design experts as a "new neutral" that adds a sophisticated, safari-inspired edge to a space without overwhelming existing decor. This rug’s classic black and white palette and organic hide shape allow it to transition seamlessly between modern, rustic, and transitional styles. Its unique silhouette is particularly effective at breaking up the rigid, linear flow of a room, providing a focal point that feels both cosmopolitan and enduring.

This rug was specifically crafted with a "compassionate and cruelty-free" philosophy. By utilizing advanced synthetic materials to achieve the look and feel of a traditional hide, it provides a humane alternative for ethically-conscious decorators. You can enjoy the rugged, safari-style aesthetic of a leather rug with the peace of mind that no animal products were used in its construction.
