Hand-knotted wool underfoot — the rug that makes the room

Questions and answers

Is $799 a good price for the Kingsley rug?

It is the only new price listed, at Pottery Barn as of November 7, 2026. Hand-knotted wool rugs of this size typically cost several hundred to over a thousand dollars, so $799 is mid-range for the construction. With one seller, there is no cheaper new option to compare.

Is hand-knotted wool worth it over a machine-made rug?

Hand-knotting produces a denser, more durable rug that can last decades with care. Machine-made wool rugs cost less but usually wear out sooner. If you want a long-term piece, the construction justifies part of the price.

Does a hand-knotted wool rug shed?

New hand-knotted wool rugs shed loose fibers for the first few months. Vacuum gently without a beater bar and shedding slows down. Some shedding is normal and not a defect.

How do I clean the Kingsley wool rug?

Vacuum regularly and blot spills immediately with a clean cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a professional rug cleaner rather than machine washing. Rotate the rug periodically so it wears evenly.

Can it go in a dining room or high-traffic area?

Wool is durable and stain-resistant, so it handles dining rooms and family rooms well. Use a rug pad to reduce slipping and add cushioning. Avoid damp basements and rooms with repeated pet accidents.

What sizes and colors does it come in?

The listing gives only the rectangular shape, hand-knotted construction and wool material. Check Pottery Barn directly for available sizes and colorways before ordering.
