Kakaveta Ivory 5' x 7'9 Rug

Absolutely. Light-colored rugs, such as this ivory piece, reflect more light than darker tones, which helps open up a space visually and makes a room feel larger and brighter. The neutral ivory tone acts as a sophisticated foundation that complements nearly any color palette, making it a versatile choice for urban apartments or cozy family rooms.

To preserve the integrity of the handcrafted fibers, you should vacuum this rug regularly to remove surface debris. Based on our material care expertise, spills should be blotted immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For deeper spot cleaning, use a mild detergent mixed with cool water, but avoid heavy scrubbing or saturating the material, as wool is naturally absorbent and sensitive to excessive moisture.

This rug is handcrafted from a blend of wool and nylon, a combination that balances luxury with longevity. Wool is a premium natural fiber celebrated for its inherent durability and soft, plush feel. By incorporating nylon, the rug gains additional resilience and strength, which helps it maintain its shape and better resist the crushing that can occur in high-traffic areas over time.

Yes, we recommend pairing this rug with a high-quality rug pad. While the rug features a durable handcrafted construction, a pad provides essential grip to prevent slipping and adds an extra layer of cushioning. More importantly, it acts as a buffer that protects the rug’s backing and your underlying flooring from friction, significantly extending the life of your investment.

Yes. While the geometric pattern has a modern aesthetic, the neutral ivory and beige tones allow it to function as a "new traditional" element. It can add a subtle contemporary edge to a room with classic furniture without clashing, successfully bridging the gap between different decor styles through its understated color palette.

This size is highly versatile for various home layouts. In a living room, it works perfectly when centered under a coffee table, typically with the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs resting on the rug to anchor the seating zone. It is also an ideal scale for placing under the lower two-thirds of a queen-sized bed, providing a soft landing for your feet in the morning.
