Glided Dunes Beige 7'9 x 9'9 Rug

Because this rug is handmade from handspun wool, some initial shedding is a normal characteristic of the natural fibers and the weaving process. To maintain its appearance, we recommend vacuuming at least once a week using a suction-only setting or a vacuum without a beater bar, as aggressive brushes can pull at the handmade fibers. Over time, shedding will significantly diminish as the rug settles into your home.

This "estate size" rug is incredibly versatile. In a standard living room, it is large enough to sit under the front legs of your sofa and chairs to unify the seating area. For a bedroom, this size is ideal for placing horizontally under a queen or king-sized bed, providing a soft, warm landing for your feet on both sides of the mattress.

Yes, wool is an excellent choice for families. It is naturally flame-retardant and hypoallergenic, as it tends to trap dust and allergens until they can be vacuumed away. Furthermore, the space-dyed technique used in this rug creates subtle, tonal color variations that are much more forgiving than a flat solid color, helping to mask small crumbs or pet hair between cleanings.

Wool is a highly breathable, natural "smart" fiber that helps regulate a room's temperature, keeping spaces cozy in the winter and comfortable in the summer. However, because wool is absorbent, we recommend using a high-quality rug pad in humid or coastal climates to provide essential airflow between the rug and the floor. This prevents moisture from being trapped, ensuring the rug remains fresh and protected against mildew.

Wool is widely considered the gold standard for high-traffic areas due to its natural resiliency. The fibers in this rug are handspun and densely woven, which allows them to "spring back" after being compressed by footsteps or furniture. Additionally, wool contains natural lanolin, which provides an inherent resistance to staining and soil, making it much more durable than most synthetic alternatives.
