Lattice Mist Gray 7'9 x 9'9 Rug

We highly recommend using a quality rug pad with this rug. Beyond preventing the rug from sliding, a pad adds a layer of cushioning that protects both the rug’s backing and your flooring from premature wear. Furthermore, a pad facilitates essential airflow beneath the rug, which is critical for preventing moisture buildup and extending the overall lifespan of the wool fibers.

A wool-blend rug is an excellent choice for busy households due to wool's natural elasticity and resilience. This rug’s handmade construction and blend of wool and rayon provide a multi-textured finish that naturally hides footprints and maintains its loft. Wool is considered the "gold standard" for durability in natural fibers, as it resists crushing and bounces back even under the weight of heavy furniture or frequent foot traffic.

For any spill, speed is essential to prevent the liquid from setting. Immediately blot the area with a clean, dry white cloth—never rub, as this can fray the delicate fibers. Our general care recommendation is to use a mild detergent mixed with lukewarm water for spot cleaning. Because rayon is more sensitive to moisture than wool, avoid over-saturating the area and always consult a professional for deep cleaning or persistent stains.

This large-scale rug is ideal for rooms approximately 10' x 12' or larger. For a living room, a common designer rule is to ensure at least the front legs of your sofa and chairs sit on the rug to anchor the space and create a cohesive seating area. In a bedroom, this size fits perfectly under a Queen or King bed, extending roughly 18 to 24 inches on either side to provide a soft, warm surface for your feet in the morning.

It is normal for a new handmade rug to experience light shedding, often referred to as "pilling" or "fluffing," for the first few months. This is simply a result of loose staple fibers coming to the surface. To manage this without damaging the weave, we recommend vacuuming once or twice a week using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar turned off.

Natural wool is highly breathable, which allows it to adapt well to varying humidity levels. In coastal or humid environments, the key is to ensure the rug is placed in a well-ventilated room and used with a breathable rug pad. This prevents the rug from trapping excess moisture and helps maintain its cosmopolitan, chic appearance over time.

Yes, wool-blend rugs are a practical and durable choice for families. Natural wool contains lanolin, a waxy coating that makes the fibers inherently soil-repellent and resistant to many liquids. Additionally, the "space-dyed" coloring and intricate striped pattern are particularly effective at camouflaging pet hair and minor spills between regular cleanings.
