Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
How should I clean a handmade cotton rug to ensure its longevity?
Because this rug is painstakingly handwoven from 100% cotton in India, it requires more delicate care than standard machine-made options. To maintain the integrity of the natural fibers, our care guide recommends immediate blotting of spills with a clean, dry cloth rather than using water, which can damage or discolor the weave. For regular maintenance, take the rug outdoors to give it a thorough shake and use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda for tougher stains to preserve its homespun texture for years to come.
Is a low-profile, handwoven rug a good choice for high-traffic areas or homes with pets?
This rug is an excellent choice for active households. With a low pile height of approximately 0.16 inches, it is less likely to snag under pet claws or trap allergens compared to high-pile alternatives. The tight, handmade construction is durable enough for daily use; however, we recommend rotating the rug regularly to ensure even wear, especially in entryways or main living zones where foot traffic is concentrated.
Do I need a rug pad for this specific type of handwoven rug?
Based on our expertise with artisanal textiles, we highly recommend using a rug pad with any handmade cotton rug. A pad provides essential grip to prevent the rug from shifting or bunching on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile. Beyond safety, a quality pad adds a layer of cushioning for enhanced comfort and acts as a buffer that protects the handwoven fibers from friction-related wear, significantly extending the life of your investment.
Will a light-colored, striped rug help make a small apartment feel larger?
Incorporating a light-toned rug is a strategic way to brighten and expand the perceived size of urban apartments or compact rooms. The white and multicolored palette reflects natural light, which visually opens up the space. Additionally, the striped pattern guides the eye across the floor, creating an illusion of greater depth and length that helps a room feel more expansive and airy.
What is the best rug size for a room with a king-sized bed?
For a master bedroom featuring a king-sized bed, a rug of this scale (9' x 12'2") is the professional standard for a balanced layout. Our design experts recommend positioning the rug under the lower two-thirds of the bed so it extends approximately 3 feet on either side and at the foot. This provides a soft, artisanal landing area that anchors the furniture while leaving a proper border of visible flooring.
