Care instructions (copie)
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.
