Havendale Black 5' x 7'6 Rug

Absolutely. Polyester is highly resistant to mold and mildew, making it a superior choice for homes in humid regions or coastal environments. Unlike natural fibers that may absorb atmospheric moisture and lose their shape, this rug’s synthetic composition ensures it remains resilient and keeps its vibrant black-and-white contrast even in fluctuating humidity levels.

Hand-tufted rugs offer a unique combination of artisanal character and modern durability. During construction, the polyester yarn is manually punched through a primary backing to create a dense, plush surface. This method allows for the precise, bold dot pattern seen in this design while ensuring a high level of comfort and insulation for your floors.

At 5' x 7'6", this rug is perfectly scaled to define seating areas in smaller living rooms or urban apartments. For a professional look, we recommend placing the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs on the rug to anchor the furniture. To ensure the space feels open and balanced, follow the "18-inch rule" by leaving approximately 18 inches of bare floor between the rug's edges and the walls.

Yes, this rug is an excellent choice for busy households. It is crafted from 100% polyester, a performance-oriented synthetic fiber known for its inherent stain resistance and durability. The hand-tufted construction creates a dense, resilient pile that can withstand frequent foot traffic while remaining soft underfoot. Additionally, polyester's resistance to moisture makes it easier to maintain in homes with active pets or young children.

For routine maintenance, we recommend vacuuming your rug regularly to remove dust and debris from the dense fibers. While professional cleaning is recommended for deep refreshes to protect the hand-tufted backing, synthetic fibers like polyester are remarkably easy to care for. Based on our expertise with this material, minor spills can typically be spot-cleaned effectively using a mild detergent and cool water.

This rug’s retro-inspired dot pattern serves as a sophisticated focal point for mid-century modern or contemporary interiors. To create a cohesive look, pair it with neutral-toned seating to let the pattern stand out, or complement the black-and-white palette with metallic accents like chrome or matte black floor lamps. Its rectangular shape and bold design are ideal for grounding a conversation nook or adding visual interest to a minimalist room.
