Nerva Gray 3'6 x 5'6 Rug

Natural wool is a breathable material that can actually help regulate indoor environments by absorbing and releasing moisture. For homes in humid or coastal climates, this natural property is beneficial, though we recommend placing the rug in a well-ventilated area. Using a high-quality rug pad is also essential in these environments, as it allows for proper air circulation beneath the rug, protecting both the handcrafted fibers and your hard flooring.

To preserve the integrity of the natural fibers, our care guide recommends vacuuming regularly to remove debris; however, it is best to avoid using a beater bar, which can be too aggressive for the delicate viscose highlights. For spills, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth—never rub, as this can damage the loop-and-pile texture. For deeper maintenance, we recommend professional cleaning to ensure the multi-level motifs remain vibrant and the fibers stay soft.

The neutral gray palette of this rug acts as a sophisticated anchor for contemporary decor. Gray is a versatile base that can either balance bold, vibrant accent colors or complement a serene, monochromatic aesthetic. The multi-level loop-and-pile construction adds visual depth and an "energetic" feel through texture rather than high-contrast patterns, making it a great choice for adding interest to a room without making the space feel cluttered.

Yes, wool is an exceptional material for noise reduction, making this rug ideal for urban apartments or multi-story homes. The dense, handcrafted natural fibers act as a sound insulator, absorbing impact noise from footsteps and reducing echoes within the room. This creates a quieter, more private atmosphere while adding a layer of luxurious comfort underfoot.

This rug features a handcrafted blend of wool and viscose, offering a strategic balance of resilience and style. Wool is naturally durable and crush-resistant, making it well-suited for high-traffic zones. The addition of viscose provides a soft, silk-like sheen that enhances the contemporary abstract motifs. For active households, the dense loop-and-pile construction is specifically designed to help maintain the rug's energetic textural look even with regular use.

A 3'6 x 5'6 rug is a versatile "accent" size perfect for defining smaller zones within a room. In a bedroom, it creates a soft, warm landing area when placed bedside. In an urban apartment or home office, it is the ideal scale to ground a reading nook or a small seating area. For larger living or dining spaces, you may want to explore the larger variations of this design, such as the 8'6 x 11'6 or 9'6 x 13' options, to ensure all furniture legs can rest comfortably on the rug.
