Guiltara Blue 7'10 x 11' Rug

Pure New Zealand wool is a premium natural fiber known for its exceptional strength, softness, and purity. Because the wool is naturally white, it allows for vibrant, clear color saturation in dyes, such as the deep blues and golds found in this collection. Beyond aesthetics, wool contains natural lanolin, which provides an inherent resistance to stains and fire, making it a high-performance choice for long-term home use.

Absolutely. While the pattern is floral, the "transitional" style is specifically designed to bridge the gap between classic elegance and modern minimalism. This collection takes inspiration from urban landscapes and city skylines, providing a "cosmopolitan chic" foundation. The balanced blue and gold palette adds sophisticated visual interest that can warm up a modern apartment or add a layer of texture to a contemporary suburban home.

Yes, wool is one of the most resilient materials for high-traffic environments. Its natural elasticity allows the fibers to "spring back" after being compressed by footsteps or furniture, preventing the rug from looking matted over time. This durability, combined with the machine-made precision of the Guiltara collection, makes it a practical and long-lasting foundation for active city homes and frequently used common areas.

This rug is an excellent choice for a dining room due to its rectangular shape and substantial 11-foot length. When placing a rug under a dining table, you should ensure it extends roughly 24 to 30 inches beyond the table's edge. This allows guests to pull out their chairs while keeping all four chair legs on the rug, providing a stable and comfortable experience during meals.

To preserve the integrity of the natural fibers, we recommend vacuuming your rug regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with a high-pile height adjustment to avoid pulling the fibers. For spills, our care guide recommends blotting the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If a stain persists, use a mixture of cool water and a mild detergent, blotting gently rather than rubbing, to ensure the wool’s natural protective oils are not stripped away.

Shedding is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool and is a sign of the rug's authentic material rather than a defect. As the rug is used, small loose fibers work their way to the surface. We recommend regular vacuuming during the first few months of ownership to manage this process. Over time, the shedding will diminish as the fibers settle, leaving you with a durable and plush floor covering.

This 7'10 x 11' rug is an ideal size for anchoring large living areas or open-concept floor plans. Based on our design expertise at Rooms To Go, a rug of this scale should be positioned so that at least the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs rest on the surface. This creates a unified "seating island" that grounds your furniture and prevents a "floating" look in larger rooms.
