Pumori Gray 5'3 x 7'6 Rug

This rug is an excellent choice for humid or coastal environments. Because it is made of polypropylene, the fibers are non-porous and naturally resistant to moisture, mold, and mildew. While natural fibers like wool can absorb moisture from the air and become heavy or develop odors in high humidity, this synthetic blend remains dry and fresh. This moisture-wicking property also makes it highly resistant to liquid spills, as they tend to sit on the surface rather than soaking in.

Absolutely. This rug is crafted from 100% polypropylene, a high-performance synthetic fiber specifically chosen for its exceptional durability and resilience. Unlike natural fibers that can be delicate, polypropylene is inherently resistant to staining and fading. With a dense pile featuring over one million points of yarn per square meter, the surface is tightly packed to resist crushing in high-traffic areas, ensuring it maintains its plush, luxurious feel even in the busiest parts of your home.

This size is ideal for grounding furniture in more compact living spaces or defined "zones" within an open-concept apartment. At approximately 5x7, it fits perfectly under the front legs of a standard sofa and a coffee table, anchoring the seating area without overwhelming the room. Additionally, the soothing gray color and abstract pattern work together to reflect light, which our design guides suggest can help a smaller room feel more open and spacious.

Based on our expert care recommendations for synthetic fibers, maintenance is straightforward and efficient. For everyday care, vacuum regularly to remove surface debris; for high-density rugs like this one, a vacuum without a beater bar is often preferred to preserve the pile. For accidents, we recommend immediate spot cleaning with a mild detergent and cool water. Because polypropylene is colorfast, it can also be steam-cleaned periodically to sanitize the fibers and refresh the overall appearance without the risk of shrinking or bleeding colors.

In the world of fine rug weaving, the "point count" refers to the density of the yarn per square meter. A count of over one million points is a hallmark of premium construction. This high density creates a more intricate and detailed abstract pattern, while also providing a sturdier foundation. A denser rug is more effective at preventing dirt from sinking deep into the fibers and is significantly better at "springing back" after being stepped on, which is a key indicator of long-term quality and value.

The drop stitch technique is a specialized weaving process where certain yarns are recessed or "dropped" to create a varied pile height. In this contemporary rug, the drop stitch is used alongside double point weaving to create a multi-dimensional, high-low texture. This adds a sophisticated visual depth to the abstract pattern and a unique tactile experience underfoot, making the rug feel more like a custom textile piece rather than a flat floor covering.
