Ixtabi Blue/Gold 8' x 10' Rug

This rug leverages the best properties of both fibers. Wool provides a durable, resilient foundation that naturally resists crushing and wear, while the viscose adds a luxurious, silk-like sheen that catches the light. The result is a plush medium pile that offers the "soft allure" of a high-end textile with the strength needed for everyday home life.

An 8' x 10' rug is a versatile choice for standard-sized living rooms, dining areas, or bedrooms. In a living room, this scale is ideal for anchoring a seating arrangement, allowing the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs to rest comfortably on the rug. For bedrooms, it fits perfectly under a queen or king-sized bed, extending far enough on both sides to provide a soft, plush landing for your feet in the morning.

Yes, the hand-tufted construction creates a dense, sturdy pile that is well-suited for active households. Because it is made with a 0.75-inch medium pile of natural wool, it maintains its loft and structure better than many synthetic alternatives. This makes it an excellent choice for high-traffic zones where you want to maintain a "modern sophistication" without sacrificing longevity.

Wool is a natural, breathable fiber that handles ambient moisture well; however, in particularly humid environments, proper airflow is key. We recommend using a high-quality rug pad underneath this rug. A pad not only prevents sliding but also creates a small gap between the rug and the floor, which helps air circulate and protects the hand-tufted backing from potential moisture retention.

Absolutely. The 0.75-inch plush pile and dense wool construction serve as an effective sound dampener. For those living in urban apartments or homes with hard flooring like tile or hardwood, this rug significantly absorbs ambient noise and softens the sound of footfalls, contributing to a quieter and more serene living environment.

To preserve the delicate sheen of the viscose and the integrity of the wool, we recommend vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar turned off. This prevents unnecessary pulling of the hand-tufted fibers. For spills, our general care advice is to blot immediately with a clean, white cloth. Avoid using heavy water or steam cleaning, as viscose is sensitive to moisture and can lose its luster if over-saturated.
