Rug Cleaning and Maintenance

Regular Vacuuming: To keep your wool are rug looking fresh, vacuum it regularly to remove dust and debris. Be gentle, especially with delicate or hand-loomed rugs, and avoid using the beater bar on your vacuum.

Rotate Your Rug: Periodically rotate your wool rug to even out wear and exposure to sunlight, ensuring it maintains its original color and texture.

Spot Cleaning: For spills or stains, blot the affected area immediately with a clean cloth or paper towel. Avoid rubbing, which can push the stain further into the wool fibers. Clear mild dish soap may be used.   Consult a professional rug cleaner for stubborn stains.

Professional Cleaning: We recommend having your wool rug professionally cleaned every 12-18 months, depending on usage. Professional cleaners are experienced in handling various rug types and can help maintain its beauty.

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade. Consider using curtains or blinds to protect your rug from harsh UV rays.

Pet Care: If you have pets, keep their nails trimmed to prevent snagging, and address any accidents promptly to prevent odors and staining.

Storage: If you plan to store your rug, clean and thoroughly dry it first. Roll it up and store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding, as this can cause creases.
