Resko Ivory/Beige 8' x 10' Rug

This rug offers a sophisticated balance of durability and elegance. The primary hand-tufted wool pile provides natural resilience and strength, making it well-suited for regular use in living rooms or bedrooms. The silky viscose yarns are added for a "dazzling" finish inspired by fine Italian silk; because viscose is more delicate than wool, we recommend placing this rug in areas where it can be enjoyed visually while avoiding the heaviest entryway foot traffic to preserve the integrity of the textured pile.

Yes, shedding is a completely normal characteristic of high-quality hand-tufted wool rugs. This occurs as small, loose fibers work their way to the surface during the initial weeks of use. Frequent vacuuming will significantly reduce shedding over time, usually subsiding within a few months as the fibers settle. This natural process does not impact the long-term density or durability of your rug.

An 8' x 10' rug is exceptionally versatile for anchoring large living and sleeping spaces. In a living room, this size is ideal for defining a seating area where the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs rest comfortably on the rug. For bedrooms, it provides a luxurious border for a King or Queen bed, extending roughly two-thirds under the mattress to create a soft landing on either side. It also fits perfectly under a dining table designed for 6 to 8 guests, ensuring chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out.

The neutral palette and geometric pattern of this rug make it a versatile foundation for both Classic and Rustic decors. The ivory and beige tones reflect light, helping a room feel brighter and more open. This design pairs beautifully with warm wood tones, brass accents, and textured upholstery. Whether you are aiming for a serene, monochromatic look or using the geometric lines to add structure to an eclectic space, this rug anchors the room with an elegant, hand-finished touch.

Regular care is essential for maintaining the intricate detail of this collection. Based on our material expertise, we recommend vacuuming wool rugs frequently using a suction-only setting or a vacuum with a high pile height adjustment to prevent fiber damage. For spills, immediate action is key: blot the area with a clean, dry cloth using cool water and a very mild detergent. Because viscose fibers are sensitive to moisture, avoid over-saturating the rug and consider professional cleaning for deep maintenance to ensure the delicate yarns retain their luster.

Wool is a naturally breathable material that manages moisture better than many synthetic alternatives, making it a solid choice for various climates. However, because the rug features intricate viscose highlights—which can be more susceptible to moisture—it is best suited for climate-controlled indoor environments. In humid coastal regions, ensuring proper airflow and using a rug pad can help protect the natural fibers from trapped moisture, maintaining the rug's refined haulte-fashion feel.
