Garkani Blue 3' x 5' Oval Rug

To maintain the lasting beauty and structural integrity of the braided polypropylene, we recommend professional cleaning for deep refreshes. For regular maintenance, our expert care guides suggest vacuuming or shaking the rug out to remove loose debris. Because the material is water-resistant, you can also spot-clean minor spills with mild detergent or occasionally hose it off and allow it to dry fully in the sun.

Yes, this all-weather rug is an excellent choice for rainy or high-humidity environments. Its polypropylene construction ensures that it does not hold onto moisture, allowing it to dry much faster than natural fiber rugs. The braided design also facilitates better airflow through the fibers, further assisting the drying process and preventing the dampness that typically leads to mildew buildup on traditional outdoor textiles.

This rug is crafted from 100% polypropylene, a high-performance synthetic fiber chosen for its exceptional durability and resistance to the elements. Polypropylene is inherently moisture-resistant, meaning it won't absorb water, which prevents the growth of mold and mildew. Additionally, the fibers are typically UV-stabilized during production, ensuring the coastal blue tones remain vibrant even after prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

Polypropylene is known for having lower heat retention than darker, denser materials or metal surfaces. While any material will warm up in intense direct sun, the light and airy "pebble" inspired design of this rug helps it stay cooler underfoot than many darker outdoor rugs. This makes it a comfortable choice for barefoot summer days on a sun-drenched patio or pool deck.

A braided polypropylene rug is a highly practical choice for high-traffic homes. The tight, meticulous weave is resistant to snagging from pet claws, and the material itself is naturally stain-resistant, making it difficult for spills to penetrate the fibers. For families, this means a rug that can withstand heavy daily use while maintaining its polished, "coastal sanctuary" aesthetic.

The compact 3' x 5' dimensions and oval shape make this rug ideal for defining specific zones in smaller areas, such as an apartment balcony, a narrow entryway, or beneath a small bistro set. While rectangular rugs can sometimes feel rigid in tight quarters, the curved edges of an oval rug soften the lines of a space, creating a more organic and inviting flow that makes a small area feel more open and curated.
