About this rug
We source raw New Zealand wool for its long fibre and natural spring, then hand-card and spin it thicker than most mill rugs on the market. That extra density is why this rug holds its shape under a coffee table or a hallway of daily traffic instead of matting flat after a season. Every batch is dyed with plant-based pigments before it ever reaches the loom, so the colour sits deep in the fibre rather than sitting on top of it. The combed cotton backing keeps the whole piece square on the floor, no curling corners, no shifting when the kids run through the room.

Real wool versus a synthetic blend
Cheap synthetic rugs flatten fast
Low-cost blended rugs use thin synthetic fibre that mats down within months and sheds loose plastic fuzz. The backing often warps or curls at the corners once it sees regular foot traffic.
Dense wool, woven to last
We use a heavier wool pile on a stable cotton backing so the rug keeps its shape and colour through years of daily use, not just the showroom photo.

Common questions
Will the wool shed? +
Some loose fibre shedding is normal in the first few weeks with any wool rug. Regular vacuuming settles it down.
Can I put this over underfloor heating? +
Yes, wool handles gentle radiant heat well. Avoid placing it directly over vents that blow hot air.
Is it safe for a home with pets? +
The dense weave resists claw snags better than a low-cost loop pile, and spills wipe up before they set.
How do I stop it sliding on hardwood? +
Use a rug pad underneath. It also protects the cotton backing from wear against the floor.
What people are saying
"The pile is so much thicker than I expected from photos. It's held its shape in our hallway which gets a lot of foot traffic."

"Colour is deeper in person, looks great against our hardwood floor. Backing keeps it from sliding around."
