With your purchase you will receive full instructions on how to place, clean and maintain your rug in mint condition to enjoy it for many years to come.
Underlay. Always use a non-slip pad under handmade rugs. The non-slip pad is a mesh mat that is laid on the floor and simply placed underneath the rug without the need to stick it or sew it.
Vacuum your rug on a regular basis. It is very important for the vacuuming to be gentle and with no friction. Use the largest attachment tool on the vacuum hose and make sure that it doesnt have any kind of brush.
Discoloration. Direct exposure to sunlight (or to any other intense light such as halogen bulbs) and/or extended periods of time can cause the textile to become discolored.
Stain removal. For detailed information about stain removal, we suggest to visit our Placing & Care section.
Dry clean only. If cleaning is necessary (over a period of time or as a result of stains), we suggest that you solely rely on rug specialists and dry cleaners experienced with and specialized in rugs.
Our rugs are entirely handmade and there may be slight variations in color, pattern details and measurements from piece to piece. All our rugs go through strict quality control processes before delivery to customers.
