Zulfa Ivory 10' x 13'9 Rug

Yes, polyester is highly recommended for active households. This rug is power-loomed from 100% polyester, a material known for being inherently stain-resistant and durable. Because the fibers are non-absorbent, spills tend to sit on the surface rather than soaking in, allowing for easier cleanup. Additionally, the medium pile height provides a soft, kid-friendly cushion for play while remaining easier to maintain than higher-pile shag options.

This rug is perfectly scaled for formal dining rooms. A key design rule is to ensure the rug extends 24 to 30 inches beyond the edge of the table so that chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out. This 10' x 13'9 rug can easily accommodate a large rectangular dining table seating 8 to 10 guests while maintaining a balanced, proportional look in the room.

To preserve the fibers and the distressed, over-dyed look, our care guidelines recommend vacuuming without a beater bar. If your vacuum does not have a "brush off" setting, set the beater bar to its highest pile height and use low suction. For even wear, we suggest rotating the rug every six months, especially in sunlit rooms. If a spill occurs, blot it immediately with a clean cloth and a mild detergent; avoid harsh chemicals which can damage the gemstone-hued dyes.

This "mansion-sized" rug is ideal for anchoring large, open-concept spaces or oversized rooms. In a grand living room, a 10' x 13'9 rug is large enough to ensure all furniture—including sofas, accent chairs, and coffee tables—sits entirely on the rug, creating a cohesive "island" effect. It is also an excellent choice for a master bedroom, where it can comfortably fit under a king-sized bed with ample soft surface area remaining on all sides.

Synthetic fibers like the polyester used in this rug are an excellent choice for varied climates. Unlike natural fibers, polyester is naturally resistant to moisture, making it less prone to mold or mildew in humid coastal regions. Furthermore, the power-loomed construction creates a dense pile that doesn't shed and is less likely to trap allergens compared to high-pile natural wool, making it a practical option for allergy-sensitive homes.

This rug features a classic Moroccan geometric pattern with an over-dyed, distressed finish that mimics the look of a vintage heirloom. This "transitional" aesthetic allows it to bridge the gap between different styles; the rich burgundy and ivory tones add warmth to traditional rooms, while the intentional fading provides a sophisticated, relaxed element that complements modern or bohemian interiors.
