This rug is GoodWeave-certified; why is that important for my purchase?
The GoodWeave certification is a powerful indicator of our commitment to ethical production. It guarantees that this rug was manufactured without child labor and ensures that the artisanal weaving communities are supported through fair labor practices. When you choose this rug, you are supporting a supply chain dedicated to social responsibility and the preservation of traditional craftsmanship.
What are the advantages of choosing a wool rug over a synthetic alternative?
Wool is a premium natural fiber celebrated for its resilience and inherent comfort. This hand-tufted wool rug offers natural insulation and a soft, "chunky" texture that synthetic fibers struggle to replicate. Furthermore, wool is naturally flame-retardant and highly durable, making it a superior long-term investment for high-traffic areas in your home.
Is a wool rug a good choice for humid climates like Florida or the Gulf Coast?
Wool is a naturally breathable fiber that can actually help manage indoor humidity by absorbing and releasing moisture without feeling damp. However, in very humid coastal regions, we recommend pairing this rug with a high-quality rug pad. This improves air circulation between the rug and the floor, which helps protect your flooring and prevents the buildup of moisture underneath the natural fibers.
How should I properly maintain a high-pile wool rug to manage shedding?
Minor shedding is a natural and expected characteristic of high-quality wool rugs. To keep your rug looking its best, our care guidelines recommend vacuuming frequently—at least once or twice a week during the first few months. It is essential to use a vacuum without a beater bar (or with the beater bar turned off) to prevent pulling or damaging the hand-tufted wool fibers.
Is this rug size appropriate for a large living room or bedroom?
At 7'9" x 9'9", this rug is an ideal size for anchoring standard-sized living rooms or placing beneath a queen or king-sized bed. In a living room, this scale allows the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs to rest comfortably on the rug, which defines the seating area and prevents a "floating" look. For a bedroom, it provides a generous, soft landing on both sides of the bed.
Does the geometric Turkish design affect how I should place my furniture?
This rug features a modernized Turkish design where the geometric pattern is emphasized by a higher pile for added dimension. While this creates a beautiful tactile experience, the overall height is 0.75 inches, which is low enough to remain stable under coffee tables or bed frames. The neutral stone palette makes it an exceptionally versatile foundation for both rustic and contemporary furniture styles.
