Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
How do I manage the initial shedding common with new rugs?
Shedding is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool rugs and is actually a sign of the rug’s authentic material. To manage this during the first few months, our experts recommend vacuuming the rug once or twice a week using a vacuum with the beater bar turned off or set to a high-pile setting. This removes loose fibers without pulling at the hand-tufted weave. You will notice shedding significantly decrease after the initial "break-in" period.
How should I clean spills to avoid damaging the Luxcelle™ and wool fibers?
For this specific blend, prompt action is key. If a spill occurs, blot—never rub—the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth to soak up the liquid. For more stubborn spots, our care guides recommend using a mixture of mild detergent and cool water. Since Luxcelle™ is a cellulose-based fiber, it is sensitive to heavy saturation; use a minimal amount of moisture and blot until dry to maintain the rug's striking turquoise and green luster.
Is this rug suitable for high-humidity coastal climates?
While wool is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking, it is also highly absorbent. In humid or coastal regions, it is essential to ensure the room has proper ventilation to prevent the natural fibers from holding onto excess moisture. For the best performance in these environments, we recommend pairing the rug with a high-quality rug pad to allow for airflow underneath and regular vacuuming to keep the fibers dry and vibrant.
Can a 5'6" x 7'5" rug work in a small living room or apartment?
Yes, this specific size is an excellent choice for grounding a seating area in an urban apartment or a smaller living space. Ideally, the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs should rest on the rug to anchor the furniture and prevent the "floating rug" look. In a bedroom setting, this size fits perfectly under the lower two-thirds of a queen-sized bed, providing a soft, warm landing for your feet on either side.
Is a wool-blend rug a safe choice for homes with pets?
Wool is a fantastic material for pet owners because it contains lanolin, a natural oil that makes the fibers inherently stain-resistant and easier to clean than many other materials. Pet hair tends to rest on the surface rather than becoming deeply embedded, allowing for simple cleanup. However, because Luxcelle™ is a more delicate, silk-like fiber, we recommend keeping pet claws trimmed to prevent any snagging of the hand-tufted details.
What makes a wool-blend rug a better investment than a synthetic alternative?
This rug is crafted from a premium blend of 50% wool and 50% Luxcelle™, offering a balance of natural durability and high-end luxury. Wool is world-renowned for its resilience and "memory," meaning it resists crushing and maintains its loft even in high-traffic areas. The addition of Luxcelle™ provides a silk-like sheen and a level of softness that synthetic fibers like polyester or polypropylene struggle to replicate. For those looking for a long-term investment, this hand-tufted construction is designed to last decades with proper care.
