Care instructions

A simple guide to care for your handmade wool rug — with time, softness, and respect.

1. Routine maintenance

• Vacuum once a week — low suction only, no rotating brush, and never on the fringes.
• Flip the rug every few weeks to help dust naturally fall out.
• Rotate occasionally to ensure even wear over time.
• Avoid direct sunlight — natural dyes last longer when kept in shade.

2. In case of stains

• Act fast — blot the top and underside with absorbent paper. Don’t rub.
• Rinse with cold water only — never hot.
• Use Marseille soap or wool-safe detergent. Lather, rinse, repeat if needed.
• Try baking soda for tougher stains. For liquids, add a bit of sparkling water.
• Let it air dry completely before using again — in the shade, laid flat.

3. What to avoid

• Harsh chemical cleaners
• Machine washing or soaking
• Steam cleaning or exposure to heat

4. Storing your rug

• Clean and dry your rug completely before storage
• Roll it (never fold) with the pile facing inward
• Wrap in cotton or breathable fabric — avoid plastic
• Store in a cool, dry place, ideally off the floor

Wool is alive. With a little care, your rug will soften, settle, and stay with you for years.
