Litzendorf Silver 3'9 x 5'9 Rug

Hand-tufting is a artisanal technique where wool is punched through a canvas backing to create a dense, plush pile. This method allows for the intricate geometric detailing seen in this design while providing a soft, luxurious feel underfoot. Because the fibers are densely packed, hand-tufted rugs also offer excellent sound dampening, making them a smart choice for urban apartments or multi-story homes.

To preserve the integrity of the natural fibers, we recommend professional cleaning for significant stains or deep refreshes. For everyday maintenance, our care guidelines suggest regular vacuuming with a low-suction setting or a handheld attachment to avoid damaging the hand-tufted pile. If a spill occurs, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals which can strip the wool of its natural lanolin.

Shedding is a normal and expected characteristic of high-quality, hand-tufted wool rugs. This occurs as small, loose fibers work their way to the surface after the tufting process. To manage this, simply vacuum the rug regularly during the first few months of ownership. You will find that shedding naturally diminishes over time as the fibers settle into the backing.

Wool is a breathable, natural fiber that can handle varying humidity levels better than many synthetic alternatives. However, because wool is absorbent, we recommend using a high-quality rug pad underneath. A pad not only prevents slipping on hard surfaces but also provides essential airflow between the rug and the floor, which helps prevent moisture trapped underneath in more humid environments.

This versatile size is ideal for defining smaller functional zones within your home. It works exceptionally well in a home office under a desk, as a sophisticated accent at the foot of a bed, or to ground a reading nook in a contemporary apartment. Its scale provides a localized pop of geometric pattern without overwhelming compact living spaces.

Wool is one of the most resilient and naturally durable fibers available for home decor. This rug’s 100% wool construction provides exceptional "bounce-back" capabilities, meaning the pile resists crushing even under heavy foot traffic. Furthermore, wool fibers contain a natural protective coating that makes the rug inherently resistant to staining and soiling, ensuring it maintains its contemporary aesthetic over years of use.
