Dune Elements Ivory 5' x 7' Rug

For urban apartment living, a wool rug serves as an effective acoustic insulator. The dense wool-viscose pile and the hand-tufted backing work together to dampen impact noise—such as footsteps or falling toys—and reduce echo within the room. This makes it an ideal choice for parents looking to create a quieter environment for their children while being mindful of downstairs neighbors.

A 5' x 7' rug is a versatile mid-size option that works exceptionally well in standard children’s bedrooms. It is ideally sized to fit under the bottom two-thirds of a twin or full bed, or to define a dedicated play zone in a nursery. Its rectangular shape provides ample coverage for a crawling baby or a toddler’s activities while still leaving a balanced border of floor space in smaller-to-medium rooms.

With a 1/2" pile height, this rug offers a dense, cushioned surface that is well-suited for active play and frequent use. While the ivory tone provides a serene look, the wool fibers are naturally durable and stand up well to foot traffic. For maximum stability and safety in a high-activity playroom, we recommend pairing this rug with a non-slip rug pad to keep it securely in place on hard flooring.

To preserve the integrity of the hand-tufted construction, our experts recommend regular vacuuming without a beater bar to remove surface dust and prevent it from settling into the 1/2" pile. For spills, immediate action is essential: blot the area with a clean, dry cloth using cool water and a mild detergent. Based on our material care guides, you should avoid saturating the rug, as natural fibers like wool and viscose are sensitive to excessive moisture.

It is normal for high-quality, hand-tufted rugs made of natural fibers to experience minor shedding, especially during the first few months of use. This is simply the release of excess fibers from the tufting process and is not a sign of poor quality. Regular vacuuming will significantly reduce this over time as the fibers settle.

This rug utilizes a strategic blend of wool and viscose to provide both longevity and aesthetic appeal. Wool is a naturally resilient fiber, renowned for its ability to bounce back after compression and its inherent stain-resistant properties. The addition of viscose provides a subtle, silk-like sheen and a softer hand-feel, making it an excellent choice for spaces where comfort and a premium finish are prioritized.
