OCEANIC IVORY 7'9 x 9'9 RUG

This rug features a sophisticated cut-and-loop pile, a construction technique that combines sheared "cut" fibers with uncut "loops." This creates a multi-level, textured surface that adds a subtle sense of depth to the oversized botanical pattern. Beyond its visual appeal, this textured pile is excellent at concealing footprints and vacuum marks, making it a practical option for high-traffic areas like family rooms.

While the ivory color offers a bright, airy aesthetic, the natural durability of wool and the varied texture of the cut-and-loop pile make it surprisingly resilient. The dense construction helps prevent pet hair from becoming deeply embedded, while the botanical pattern helps mask minor imperfections. To further protect your investment and ensure safety, we strongly recommend using a high-quality rug pad to prevent slipping and reduce wear on the rug’s backing.

A rug of this dimension, approximately 8' x 10', is a versatile choice for most standard living rooms. For a cohesive look, we recommend a layout where at least the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs sit on the rug to anchor the space. This size is also ideal for placement under a queen or king-sized bed, providing a soft, warm landing on either side of the mattress.

Yes. Wool is a breathable, "active" fiber that can naturally help regulate indoor humidity by absorbing and releasing moisture, making it a comfortable choice for coastal or humid environments. Additionally, wool is naturally hypoallergenic and flame-resistant. Its fibers tend to trap dust and allergens until they can be vacuumed away, helping to maintain clearer indoor air quality compared to hard flooring or certain synthetic materials.

Wool is widely considered the premier natural fiber for rugs due to its exceptional resilience and longevity. Because this rug is handmade from 100% wool, it features a natural coating of lanolin that makes the fibers inherently stain-resistant and easier to clean than many synthetic alternatives. Furthermore, wool is a sustainable, biodegradable material that provides excellent insulation and sound dampening, making it a high-performance choice for busy households.

To preserve the integrity of the handmade wool fibers, we recommend regular vacuuming using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with the beater bar raised; high-powered brushes can cause excessive shedding or "fuzzing" on natural wool. Because wool is highly absorbent, spills should be blotted immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For deep cleaning, we recommend professional service every 1–2 years to maintain the rug's vibrancy and structure.
