Know before you buy
The Wayland rug features a low pile height of approximately 2-3 mm (roughly 0.08 inches). This creates a sleek, low-profile look that works well in entryways or under furniture.
This rug is rated for medium traffic. While it is durable enough for living rooms or bedrooms, we recommend avoiding high-traffic areas like busy hallways or entryways to preserve the hand-knotted wool fibers.
No, this rug is professional clean only. Because it is crafted from 100% wool, household cleaners or washing machines can damage the fibers and the integrity of the hand-knotted construction.
While a rug pad is not strictly required, it is often a good idea to use one to prevent slipping and to provide an extra layer of cushioning, especially on hard surface floors.
Because each Wayland rug is hand-knotted by artisans, slight variations in color and size are inherent to the process. These subtle differences are what give the piece its unique, designer quality.
No, this rug is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements like moisture and direct sunlight will damage the wool fibers.
