Tamila Gray 7'9 x 9'9 Rug

We strongly recommend using a rug pad with any hand-tufted rug. A pad provides essential grip to prevent sliding on hard flooring surfaces and adds an extra layer of cushioning that protects the underside of the rug from friction. This not only increases safety in your home but also extends the lifespan of the fibers by reducing the impact of daily foot traffic.

A 7'9 x 9'9 rug is a versatile large-scale choice ideal for standard living rooms. For a cohesive look, aim to have at least the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs resting on the rug. This size is also an excellent fit for under a queen- or king-sized bed, providing a soft, wide perimeter around the base. In a dining room, ensure the rug is large enough to keep all chair legs on the surface even when they are pulled out for seating.

Wool is a highly breathable, natural protein fiber that can manage ambient moisture better than many synthetic alternatives, making it a sound choice for various climates. When blended with Luxcelle T, the rug maintains a cool, comfortable temperature. To ensure the longest life in humid environments, we recommend using a high-quality rug pad to allow for proper airflow beneath the rug.

This rug offers a sophisticated tactile experience. The hand-tufted process creates a dense, plush pile, while the blend of wool and Luxcelle T provides a contrast between the matte, substantial feel of the wool and the smooth, shimmering finish of the Luxcelle. This results in a contemporary, multi-dimensional surface that feels exceptionally soft and premium underfoot.

Yes, this blend is specifically engineered to balance luxury with longevity. Wool is a naturally resilient fiber that "bounces back" after being compressed by footsteps, making it superior for high-traffic areas. The addition of 50% Luxcelle T—a high-quality cellulose fiber—adds a silk-like luster and enhanced softness without sacrificing the structural integrity of the hand-tufted construction.

Because this rug is crafted with a high percentage of natural wool, minor shedding is a normal characteristic, especially during the first few months of use. This is simply a sign of the high-quality, authentic fibers settling. We recommend vacuuming regularly with a suction-only setting (avoiding a beater bar) to maintain the delicate hand-tufted details. For spills, our general care recommendation is to blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than scrubbing.
