Kerym Blue 7'6 x 9'6 Rug

A plush, handmade wool rug is an ideal choice for urban dwellers looking to improve their living environment. The dense pile of 100% wool acts as a natural sound insulator, significantly dampening noise and vibrations between floors—a common challenge in multi-story apartment buildings. Additionally, wool’s natural thermal properties provide an extra layer of insulation, helping to keep your space more comfortable throughout the seasons.

A 7'6" x 9'6" rug is a versatile size that works beautifully in many standard room configurations. In a living room, this scale typically allows for the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs to rest securely on the rug, which anchors the seating arrangement and defines the space without overwhelming it. For a balanced look, our design experts suggest leaving roughly 18 inches of bare floor between the rug's edge and the walls.

Wool is a premium natural fiber celebrated for its exceptional resilience and longevity. Unlike synthetic fibers that can crush or flatten over time, wool fibers have a natural "crimp" that allows them to spring back to their original shape after being walked on. This makes a wool rug a high-performance choice for high-traffic areas, offering a luxurious, plush feel that establishes a foundation of quality in any room.

It is normal for new, high-quality wool rugs to experience light shedding initially as loose fibers from the hand-tufting process rise to the surface; this will subside with regular vacuuming. To maintain the rug’s integrity, our care guide recommends vacuuming without a beater bar and treating spills immediately. Blot liquid messes with a clean, dry cloth and a small amount of mild detergent, taking care never to rub the fibers, which can cause permanent distortion to the pile.

Yes, we highly recommend the use of a non-skid rug pad with this rug. A quality pad is essential for preventing slippage on hard surfaces, ensuring safety in your home. Beyond stability, a rug pad provides extra cushioning for added comfort, protects your floor's finish from the rug's backing, and extends the rug's lifespan by reducing the internal friction of the fibers.

Wool is a natural, breathable fiber that is suitable for a wide range of climates. In more humid or coastal environments, wool’s ability to manage moisture is a benefit, though we recommend ensuring the room is well-ventilated and using a rug pad. This promotes proper air circulation beneath the rug, preventing moisture from becoming trapped and protecting both the durable wool pile and your underlying flooring.
