How to take care of your rug

Rugs of wool, linen

Daily cleaning

Vacuum cleaning is normally sufficient for cleaning the carpet. Never vacuum your rug with the brushes of your vacuum cleaner nozzle in the extended position.
You can also give your rug a gentle shake outside. Do not beat your rug.

Spot cleaning, only woolen rugs

Spots, spills and dirt should be removed in two steps immediately after the spill to avoid a stain. 1. Blot, never rub, the area with a soft cloth, paper towel or napkin to soak up as much of the liquid as possible. 2. Dab the spot very gently with a damp cloth soaked in carbonated water.

More thorough cleaning

We recommend professional cleaning. Please note, that we cannot guarantee that all stains can be completely removed.

Rugs for outdoor use

Daily cleaning

Everyday care will keep your outdoor rug looking fresh and new for longer.

Gently vacuum as often as necessary, please avoid using the beater or brush bar on the vacuum cleaner. For other cleaning options, sweep with a soft broom or gently shake the rug outside; never beat the rug.

If needed, rinse with cold water from the garden hose, and allow both sides to dry completely as any dampness might cause mold or other damages. For the same reason, it’s important to always keep the area under the rug clean and dry.

The rug is also suitable for indoor use. If used indoor, we always recommend an underlay to ensure that the rug remains in a fixed position, to reduce the risk of any staining, and to extend the life of the rug.

Spot cleaning

Clean any spills and spots immediately after by blotting softly with mild soap and water.

Underlay

We always recommend that you use an underlay to extend the life of your rug. An underlay ensures that the rug remains in a fixed position. It also reduces the risk of any staining.
Some of our kilim rugs are reversible. We recommend that you turn your rug over every six months.

Do not place your rug in direct sunlight. Irregularities in colour and weaving are characteristics of hand-made rugs.
