Rug Cleaning Guide
Regular Maintenance
Vacuum your rug weekly using suction only — avoid beater bars which can damage hand-knotted pile. For shag or high-pile rugs, use the upholstery attachment.
Spills & Stains
Act fast: blot (never rub) with a clean, dry cloth. For wool rugs, a mixture of mild detergent and cool water works for most spills. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Deep Cleaning
We recommend professional rug cleaning once a year, especially for wool and silk rugs. Professionals use methods safe for natural dyes and hand-knotted construction.
What to Avoid
- Never use bleach or harsh chemicals
- Never machine-wash a handmade rug
- Avoid excessive water on jute rugs
- Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight
