Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hand-tufted rug, and how is it made?
Wool is punched through a stretched canvas backing by hand using a tufting gun, following a pre-drawn design. A layer of latex is applied underneath to lock the fibres in place, then a fabric backing is added for stability.
What is an "allover" floral pattern?
Rather than one large central medallion, the design repeats smaller medallions and florals evenly across the whole field, bordered separately.
Is shedding normal on a new hand-tufted rug?
Yes — some loose fibre shedding in the first few months is normal for wool pile and settles down with regular vacuuming.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Vacuum on suction only, without a rotating brush or beater bar. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth rather than rubbing, avoid harsh chemicals, and bring in a professional cleaner periodically.
What is the pile material?
100% New Zealand wool.
Which room suits this rug best?
Living rooms and dining rooms — the classic floral pattern works well as a traditional or transitional anchor piece.
