Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Is it normal for a new wool rug to shed?
Yes, initial shedding is a hallmark of high-quality natural wool and is not a defect. Because this rug is crafted from 100% New Zealand wool, you may notice small fibers on the surface for the first few months. Regular vacuuming—ideally with a suction-only setting or a high-pile adjustment—will effectively manage this process until the rug fully settles.
How do I properly clean and maintain a wool rug?
To keep your wool rug looking its best, we recommend regular vacuuming to remove surface dust and debris. For long-term care and to preserve the vibrant colors of the Oriental pattern, our expertise suggests having the rug professionally cleaned. In the event of a spill, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth to absorb moisture; avoid scrubbing, as this can agitate the natural wool fibers.
Why is New Zealand wool considered a premium material for rugs?
New Zealand wool is world-renowned for its purity, strength, and softness. It is a sustainable, natural fiber that is inherently stain-resistant due to the protective lanolin coating found on the wool. Compared to synthetic alternatives, New Zealand wool offers superior longevity and a more luxurious feel, making it a worthwhile investment for a refined home interior.
Is a wool rug a durable choice for high-traffic areas?
Yes, 100% New Zealand wool is an exceptionally resilient natural fiber, making this rug an ideal choice for busy areas of the home like entryways, hallways, or living rooms. Wool fibers possess a natural elasticity that allows them to "spring back" after being stepped on, helping the rug maintain its shape and plush texture despite heavy foot traffic.
Should I use a rug pad with this rug?
We highly recommend pairing this rug with a quality rug pad. A pad provides essential grip to prevent sliding on hard flooring surfaces and adds an extra layer of comfort underfoot. Most importantly, it acts as a buffer between the rug's backing and your floor, reducing friction and significantly extending the lifespan of the wool construction.
What is the best way to use a 3'1" x 5'6" rug in a small apartment or home?
This versatile size is perfect for defining smaller "zones" within a room. It functions beautifully as an entryway accent to welcome guests, a plush landing beside a bed, or a decorative anchor underneath a desk in a home office. For those living in urban apartments, a rug of this scale adds warmth and sophisticated traditional style without overwhelming a compact floor plan.
