About this rug
This rug starts with New Zealand wool, hand-carded to keep the fibers long and springy instead of chopped short. That single choice is why the pile stands back up after furniture is moved and doesn't flatten into a worn path near the sofa or under a desk chair. The cotton foundation weave underneath does the quiet work of holding everything in place so the rug lies flat from the first day. Color comes from plant-based dyes, applied skein by skein rather than sprayed on after weaving, so the tone runs through the fiber and doesn't rub off on socks or furniture legs. It's built for rooms that get used every day, not rooms that get looked at once a week.
- ✓ No synthetic fiber fillers
- ✓ Plant-based dye only
- ✓ Cotton backing, no latex glue
Keeping it looking new
Unroll fully and smooth out fold lines before placing furniture.
Vacuum lightly at the end of the week to lift dust from the pile.
A thin rug pad underneath extends the life of the backing.
Hand-carded wool vs machine-chopped fiber
Cheap wool blends flatten fast
Machine-chopped wool fiber loses its spring within months, leaving a worn path where feet walk most. Thin backing lets edges curl and corners lift.
Longer fiber, tighter backing
Hand-carded wool keeps its structure longer, and the cotton foundation weave keeps the whole rug flat under daily use.

Common questions
Will the wool shed when it's new? +
A bit of shedding in the first few weeks is normal for wool rugs. Regular vacuuming with a hard-floor setting settles it down quickly.
Can I put it in a hallway or under a dining table? +
Yes, the dense wool pile and cotton backing are built for daily foot traffic and chair movement.
How do I clean a spill? +
Blot right away with a dry cloth, then use a small amount of mild soap and water on the spot only. Avoid soaking the backing.
Does it work over underfloor heating? +
Wool breathes well and handles gentle underfloor heat fine; just avoid placing it directly over vents.
