Nalina Seafoam 7'9 x 9'9 Rug

Because of the natural oils in the New Zealand wool and the delicate hand-carved Luxcelle details, we recommend vacuuming frequently with a suction-only setting (avoiding a beater bar). For spills, our care guide advises immediate blotting with a clean, dry cloth and a mixture of cool water and mild detergent. To preserve the watercolor effect and thick pile, professional cleaning is recommended every 12-18 months.

This rug is well-suited for active households. The abstract watercolor effect, featuring a blend of seafoam, blue, and beige, is strategically designed to disguise light soil and minor wear better than a solid-colored rug. Additionally, the natural resilience of wool fibers means the pile will "spring back" more effectively after being walked on, making it a durable choice for areas like family rooms or transition spaces.

Yes, a rug with a thick pile and high wool content is an excellent solution for sound dampening in multi-story apartment living. The 50% New Zealand wool construction acts as a natural acoustic insulator, absorbing echoes and reducing the transmission of foot traffic noise to rooms below. This makes it a functional choice for high-rise condos or urban apartments with hard surface flooring.

A 7'9" x 9'9" rug is an ideal "anchor" size for most standard living rooms. To achieve a professional, balanced look, our design experts recommend placing the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs on the rug. This scale helps define the seating area in open-concept floor plans while leaving a sufficient border of your flooring visible, adhering to the traditional 18-inch rule for rug placement.

This rug features a premium 50/50 composition of New Zealand wool and Luxcelle™. New Zealand wool is an industry-standard for luxury, known for its exceptional softness, natural flame resistance, and ability to improve indoor air quality by trapping allergens. The addition of Luxcelle—a cellulose-based fiber with a silk-like luster—provides a sophisticated sheen and allows for the intricate hand-carved details that give the abstract pattern its distinct texture and depth.

It is a hallmark of high-quality natural fibers like New Zealand wool to experience minor shedding during the first few months of use. This is simply the release of loose fibers and is not a sign of poor construction. Regular vacuuming will quickly diminish this process. The inclusion of Luxcelle helps stabilize the blend, ensuring the rug retains its dense texture and hand-carved definitions over time.
