Jelsma Red 3' x 5' Rug

To preserve the integrity of the weave, our care guidelines recommend regular vacuuming using a straight suction vacuum only—avoiding beater bars which can pull at the fibers. For localized spills, the polyester material allows for simple spot cleaning with water. Because it is suitable for covered outdoor use, you can also shake the rug out to quickly remove loose sand or dust, a common maintenance need in coastal environments.

Absolutely. This rug is UV-stabilized, meaning the fibers are treated to resist fading and degradation from sun exposure, which is essential for maintaining the vibrant red and botanical patterns in sunny climates. While it is perfect for covered outdoor spaces like porches or lanais, its coastal-inspired design also makes it a seamless transition piece for indoor "Florida rooms" or sunrooms.

Despite its ultra-thin, low-profile design, this rug features an "ultra-soft" pile. This construction provides a surprisingly plush feel underfoot, making it a practical yet comfortable choice for indoor living areas where you want the ease of a low-maintenance synthetic rug without sacrificing the cozy texture typical of traditional indoor floor coverings.

This rug is exceptionally well-suited for humid regions. Unlike natural fiber rugs (such as jute or sisal) which can absorb moisture and become prone to mildew, the 100% polyester construction is moisture-resistant and quick-drying. This makes it a superior choice for humid coastal homes or covered poolside areas where dampness is a frequent factor.

Yes, this rug is specifically designed for high-traffic resilience. Built with a 100% polyester pile, it offers the inherent durability of synthetic fibers, which are naturally resistant to wear and staining. The ultra-thin pile is particularly advantageous for busy households, as it allows for easy door clearance and minimizes the trapping of dirt and debris compared to higher-shag alternatives.

One of the standout functional features of this rug is its integrated non-skid backing. This built-in layer provides essential grip on hard surfaces like tile, hardwood, or smooth concrete patios, helping to prevent sliding and bunching. In most cases, this eliminates the need for a separate rug pad, making it a convenient, "ready-to-use" solution for both indoor and covered outdoor layouts.
