Unique and contemporary, the Skylie rug features exquisite details that's created by the sophisticated high/low texture with cutting edge styling and shades of blue, ivory, black and gray. For maintenance, vacuum regularly. Set the vacuum height gauge to its highest setting, as some powerful vacuums may damage the pile, bound edges or corners of your rug. Do not pull loose yarns; trim with scissors. It is normal for new rugs to shed fibers. Frequent vacuuming will aid in eliminating excess loose fibers. The shedding will diminish with regular wear and vacuuming. In case of a spill, blot immediately and spot clean with mild soap and water.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas in a home with pets or children?
This rug is well-suited for active households due to its patterned blue, ivory, black, and gray palette, which is excellent for masking minor everyday wear. For homes with pets or kids, the high/low texture provides a durable surface that stands up to movement. In the event of a spill, our care guide recommends blotting the area immediately with a clean cloth and spot cleaning with mild soap and water to prevent the stain from setting.
Is it normal for a new rug to shed, and how can I stop it?
Yes, it is perfectly normal for high-quality new rugs to shed excess fibers initially. To manage this, we recommend frequent vacuuming during the first few months of use, which helps eliminate loose yarns. Over time, as the rug experiences regular wear and consistent vacuuming, this shedding will naturally diminish. If you notice a loose yarn popping up, do not pull it, as this can cause unraveling; instead, simply trim it level with the rest of the pile using a pair of sharp scissors.
How do I properly clean spills on this contemporary rug?
For immediate spill response, the key is to blot—never scrub—the area with a clean, dry cloth to lift as much liquid as possible. For any remaining residue, spot clean using a solution of mild soap and water. Because this rug features a detailed multi-color design, prompt cleaning ensures the vibrant blue and ivory tones remain crisp and clear over the life of the product.
Can this rug help with noise reduction in an open-concept home or apartment?
Absolutely. At 8' x 10', this rug provides significant floor coverage that helps dampen echoes and reduce "floor-slap" noise, which is particularly beneficial in urban apartments or homes with hardwood and tile floors. The varied pile height and dense texture act as a natural sound absorber, creating a quieter and more intimate atmosphere in larger, open-concept living spaces.
Is an 8' x 10' rug the right size for a living room with a standard-sized sofa?
An 8' x 10' rug is often considered the ideal "anchor" size for standard living rooms. For a cohesive look, our design experts recommend placing the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs on the rug to unify the seating area. This specific size provides a generous 80 square feet of coverage, which is typically sufficient to fill the central space of a room while leaving a sophisticated border of flooring visible around the edges.
How do I maintain a rug with a high/low texture?
To preserve the "sophisticated high/low texture" and "cutting-edge styling" of this rug, regular maintenance is essential. You should vacuum the rug frequently to prevent dirt from settling into the varied pile heights. Crucially, set your vacuum height gauge to its highest setting; some powerful vacuums with low brush bars can be too aggressive and may damage the delicate high/low pile, bound edges, or corners.
