- Is this rug hand-knotted or machine-made?
- It is hand-knotted wool, made in China. That construction is denser and generally longer-lasting than tufted or power-loomed rugs.
- Will it shed?
- Expect some shedding at first, as with most hand-knotted wool rugs. Vacuum gently without a beater bar and it settles over time.
- How should I clean it?
- Vacuum regularly on low suction and blot spills right away. For deeper cleaning, use a professional wool rug cleaner rather than machine washing.
- Does the multicolor pattern hide dirt?
- The busy pattern masks everyday marks and foot traffic better than a solid rug. It still needs regular vacuuming to keep grit out of the wool.
- What sizes does the Versailles V13 come in?
- The line is offered in several rectangular sizes, from small accent rugs to large room sizes. Check the listed dimensions before ordering for a large room.
- Will it lie flat right away?
- Hand-knotted rugs often arrive with creases from rolling. Reverse-roll it or weigh the corners down for a few days to flatten it.
