Built to withstand the demands of daily life, it blends resilience with patina-rich elegance—making it as practical as it is picturesque. Whether placed in a grand living space, dining room, or boutique setting, this rug brings character, history, and a sense of curated warmth that only a true antique can offer.. Colors: faded blue-gray/beige/ivory/light blue/taupe/gold.
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
