Inspired by the Atomic Age but with the softness of elements of Art Deco, the hand tufted wool Roffinne Collection is imbued with movement and comfort. Echoing the shape of beautiful curved chairs and sofas, it firmly rejects straight lines and angles while pushing the boundaries of modern rug design. The plush, two-level pile was designed to create a metaphorical platform, setting the stage for both comfort and high design. Spot clean with a dry, clean cloth and vacuum without a beater bar to maintain the appearance and longevity of your rug. Some shedding will occur, vacuuming with suction only will help reduce the shedding over time. Professional cleaning recommended.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
How does the thickness of this rug affect its use in high-traffic areas?
With a pile height and depth of approximately 0.75 inches, this rug provides a substantial, plush feel underfoot. While wool is naturally soil-resistant and durable enough for high-traffic zones, the ivory color and multi-level pile are best suited for areas where comfort and design are the priorities, such as bedrooms or formal living rooms. For any area with heavy use, we recommend pairing the rug with a high-quality rug pad to provide extra cushioning and prevent the backing from shifting.
Where is an oval rug most effective within a home’s layout?
An oval rug is an excellent design choice for softening the hard, linear edges of rectangular rooms or furniture. This shape is particularly effective in foyers, under oval dining tables, or in living spaces where you want to create a sense of movement and flow. Because this rug firmly rejects straight angles, it acts as a metaphorical platform that can ground curved sofas and chairs, bridging the gap between Art Deco elegance and modern design.
How do I properly maintain a hand-tufted wool rug to manage shedding?
It is normal for high-quality wool rugs to experience some shedding, especially when new. To maintain the rug's appearance and longevity, we recommend vacuuming regularly using suction only—it is vital to avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar, as the rotating brush can pull at the hand-tufted fibers and increase shedding. For spills, spot clean immediately with a dry, clean cloth, and we suggest professional cleaning periodically to preserve the integrity of the natural wool.
Is an ivory-colored rug a good choice for smaller urban apartments?
Yes, an ivory rug is a strategic choice for smaller or darker spaces. Light-colored textiles like ivory reflect more natural and ambient light, which helps a room feel more open, airy, and expansive. When paired with an oval shape, which naturally draws the eye outward and softens corners, this rug can make a standard "boxy" apartment layout feel more curated and visually spacious.
Is a wool rug suitable for households with pets?
Wool is a resilient material that stands up well to daily wear, but certain precautions should be taken. The natural oils in wool provide a degree of stain resistance, which is helpful for minor accidents. However, the plush, two-level pile and hand-tufted construction can be sensitive to pet claws if they tend to scratch. Regular vacuuming with suction only will help remove pet hair that sits on the surface of the dense wool fibers.
What are the primary benefits of choosing a wool rug over synthetic materials?
Wool is a premium, natural fiber highly regarded for its exceptional durability and inherent resilience. Unlike many synthetic alternatives, wool fibers possess a natural "memory" that allows them to bounce back after being compressed by foot traffic or furniture. Additionally, the hand-tufted wool construction of this modern rug provides a plush, two-level pile that offers superior comfort and a high-design aesthetic that is difficult to replicate with machine-made synthetic fibers.
