Laniberry Green 8' x 10' Rug

This rug is crafted from 100% New Zealand wool, which is globally recognized for its superior quality and high lanolin content. Lanolin acts as a natural protective barrier, making the fibers inherently more resistant to spills and staining than synthetic alternatives. Additionally, New Zealand wool is exceptionally durable and resilient, meaning the pile is less likely to flatten over time, even in higher-traffic areas of your home.

To preserve the integrity of the hand-loomed fibers, we recommend vacuuming regularly using a suction-only setting. It is important to avoid using a vacuum with a rotating beater bar or brush, as these can pull at the wool and cause the surface to "fuzz" or pill. For deeper maintenance, our care guidelines suggest professional cleaning to ensure the natural oils in the wool are not stripped by harsh household chemicals.

Yes, wool is an excellent natural insulator. Because of its dense fiber structure and the hand-loomed construction, this rug helps absorb ambient noise and dampen the sound of footfalls. This makes it an ideal choice for urban apartment living or multi-story homes where reducing sound transfer between floors is a priority.

Wool is often a preferred choice for pet owners because its natural resilience allows it to "spring back" after being stepped on. The low 0.38-inch pile height of this specific rug is particularly advantageous, as it is easier to vacuum than deep shag and less likely to trap pet hair or dander deep within the fibers. Furthermore, the natural stain resistance provided by the wool's lanolin offers an extra layer of protection against life's little accidents.

It is perfectly normal for a high-quality wool rug to experience minor shedding when first placed in your home. This is simply the result of small fiber fragments being released from the loom and does not indicate a defect. Regular suction-only vacuuming during the first few months will significantly reduce this over time as the rug settles.

Wool is a naturally breathable and moisture-wicking fiber, allowing it to adapt well to various environments. However, in very humid or coastal areas, organic fibers can sometimes hold onto moisture. To keep the rug fresh, ensure the room is well-ventilated and rely on professional cleaning rather than DIY steam cleaning, which can leave the backing damp and lead to organic odors.

The vibrant green and geometric pattern of this rug serve as a sophisticated focal point. For a balanced contemporary look, we recommend pairing it with furniture in neutral tones like charcoal gray, cream, or light oak. If you wish to lean into a more energetic palette, the green base acts as a beautiful foundation for complementary accents in navy blue or soft terracottas.
