Moncha Red 3'6 x 5'6 Rug

This rug is handcrafted from 100% viscose yarns, a material celebrated for its silk-like luster and exceptional softness underfoot. While viscose provides a more luxurious feel than synthetic polypropylene, it is generally recommended for low-to-medium traffic areas. To maintain the integrity of the all-loop hand-loom weave, we suggest placing this in a bedroom or formal sitting room rather than a high-traffic entryway or mudroom.

Because viscose is a delicate fiber, it requires specialized care. We recommend vacuuming the rug regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum without a beater bar to avoid fraying the handcrafted loops. In the event of a spill, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using excessive water or steam cleaning, as moisture can cause viscose fibers to lose their texture or yellow; in humid climates, ensuring the room is well-ventilated will help preserve the rug’s tonal quality.

With dimensions of approximately 3'6" x 5'6", this rug is expertly scaled for smaller spaces like a reading nook, home office, or a compact urban apartment seating area. For the best aesthetic, place it centered under a coffee table to ground the furniture. Our design experts recommend ensuring the rug is large enough to touch or sit slightly under the front legs of your primary seating to anchor the layout and prevent a "floating" appearance.

While the cotton backing provides excellent structural stability, the all-loop weave and viscose yarns are more delicate than high-performance synthetic fibers. Loop-pile rugs can be susceptible to snagging from pet claws. For households with active pets, we suggest placing this rug in a room with restricted pet access or ensuring nails are regularly trimmed to protect the handcrafted texture.

We strongly recommend using a rug pad for both safety and longevity. A quality pad prevents the rug from shifting or bunching, which is particularly important for lightweight rugs on smooth surfaces. Additionally, a pad protects your underlying flooring and provides an extra layer of cushioning, enhancing the plush, textural feel of the hand-loomed viscose yarns.

A solid red rug is a sophisticated way to introduce a "pop of color" into a room dominated by neutrals like beige, cream, or gray. Red adds warmth and a contemporary energy to the space. For a balanced aesthetic, pair this rug with wood-toned furniture or metallic accents like brass or gold, which can soften the boldness of the hue while maintaining a modern, high-end feel.
