Nimah Gray 5'1 x 7'7 Rug

A rug of this size is highly versatile for mid-sized spaces. In a living room, it works perfectly to anchor a coffee table and the front legs of a sofa, creating a defined seating area. For bedrooms, it can be placed horizontally under the bottom two-thirds of a queen-sized bed to provide a soft landing for your feet. It is also an excellent choice for a home office or a dining nook featuring a table for four.

Yes, this rug is hand-tufted with 100% polyester, a material highly regarded for its resilience and stain resistance. Polyester fibers are naturally non-absorbent, meaning liquid spills tend to sit on the surface rather than soaking in, allowing for easier cleanup. Its soft texture provides comfort underfoot while maintaining its shape in areas of the home that see regular activity.

The distressed style of this rug is both an aesthetic and a practical choice. By mimicking the look of a well-loved vintage piece, the intentional "fading" in the Oriental motif helps to naturally mask minor wear, pet hair, and small crumbs. This makes it a strategic choice for high-traffic zones like entryways or living rooms where a pristine, solid-colored rug might show debris more quickly.

Absolutely. Layering an area rug over carpet is a great way to introduce a pop of color—like the yellow and blue accents in this motif—and protect your primary flooring. To prevent the rug from "creeping" or bunching on top of the carpet, we recommend using a rug-to-carpet pad, which provides the necessary grip to keep the rug flat and secure.

Based on our expertise with tufted constructions, we recommend vacuuming the rug regularly using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar raised. This prevents the rotating brush from pulling at the fibers and loosening the tufts over time. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth and mild detergent. To preserve the rug's longevity and the integrity of the backing, a professional cleaning is recommended for deep refreshes.

Synthetic fibers like polyester are an excellent choice for humid environments. Unlike natural materials like wool or jute, which can trap moisture and be susceptible to mold or mildew, polyester is moisture-resistant and dries relatively quickly. This makes it a reliable option for homes in coastal regions or areas with higher indoor humidity levels.
