Nadra Blue 7'6 x 9'6 Rug

Shedding is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool rugs and is not a sign of a defect. For a hand-tufted rug like this one, small "staple" fibers may work loose initially. Our care experts recommend vacuuming the rug at least twice a week during the first few months using a vacuum without a beater bar or with the bar set to the highest setting. This prevents aggressive agitation while effectively removing loose fibers until the rug settles.

Absolutely. The density of 100% wool combined with a 0.5-inch pile height makes this rug an excellent choice for acoustic dampening. It helps absorb ambient noise and reduces the impact sound of footsteps, which is particularly beneficial for creating a quieter environment in multi-story apartment living or homes with hardwood floors.

Yes, this rug is exceptionally well-suited for high-traffic areas like living rooms or entryways. It is hand-tufted from 100% wool, a fiber naturally prized for its resilience and elasticity. Wool fibers possess a natural protective coating of lanolin, which provides an inherent resistance to staining and helps the pile "spring back" after being walked on, maintaining the rug's plush 0.5-inch loft over time.

Because wool is naturally water-repellent for a short window, the key is to act quickly. Our maintenance guide recommends blotting spills immediately with a clean, dry white cloth—never scrub, as this can fray the wool scales. For deeper cleaning, use cool water mixed with a pH-neutral mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or steam cleaning, which can strip the natural lanolin and weaken the hand-tufted backing.

This "estate size" rug is a versatile choice for bedroom layouts. For a queen bed, a 7'6" x 9'6" rug provides a generous 18-24 inch border on both sides and at the foot, offering a soft, warm landing for your feet. For a king bed, while it will fit, it will offer a tighter border. Based on our spacing expertise, we recommend placing the rug under the bottom two-thirds of the bed to maximize the visible geometric pattern.

Wool is a breathable, "intelligent" fiber that naturally manages moisture, making it a sophisticated choice for various climates. However, in high-humidity or coastal areas, wool can absorb atmospheric moisture. To maintain the rug's integrity and prevent a "musty" scent, we recommend ensuring proper airflow in the room and using a high-quality rug pad to allow the underside of the hand-tufted backing to breathe.
