Helna Blue 6'6 x 9' Rug

This rug features a sophisticated Oriental pattern with medallions and vine motifs, but its "softer side" comes from a pastel color palette of baby blue, beige, and pink. This subdued color scheme allows the traditional design to act as a neutral foundation, making it a perfect bridge for transitional spaces that mix ancestral weaving styles with clean, modern furniture lines.

Yes, this rug is specifically engineered for both beauty and performance. It features an innovative blend of natural wool and nylon threads. While wool provides natural resilience and a soft feel, the addition of nylon enhances the rug's durability and resistance to wear. This makes it a superior choice for busy households or frequently used living spaces where long-term performance is essential.

This construction method offers the intricate detail and aesthetic charm of a hand-knotted piece with the consistency and value of modern technology. By mimicking ancestral weaving techniques using a high-quality wool and nylon blend, this rug achieves a sophisticated tribal style and a low 0.25-inch profile that is less likely to cause tripping hazards or interfere with door clearance.

To maintain the appearance and longevity of the delicate tribal motifs, it is important to vacuum without a beater bar, as aggressive brush rolls can pull at the fibers. For spills, our care guide recommends spot cleaning immediately with a dry, clean cloth to lift the liquid before it sets. Because of the wool blend construction, avoid using harsh chemicals or steam cleaners, which can damage the natural fibers.

This "estate size" rug is ideal for anchoring a standard-sized seating area. Our design experts recommend placing the rug so that at least the front legs of your sofa and chairs rest on it. This creates a cohesive "room within a room" feel and prevents the rug from looking like it’s floating in the center of the space. For larger rooms, this collection is also available in sizes up to 7'9" x 9'10" to ensure full coverage.

Natural wool is a breathable fiber that possesses inherent moisture-wicking properties, making it a smarter choice for varied climates than many purely synthetic alternatives. The addition of nylon threads helps the rug maintain its structural integrity and shape, even in more humid environments. However, as with all fine floor coverings, we recommend using a rug pad to allow for proper airflow underneath and to prevent any moisture from being trapped between the rug and your flooring.
