Product Insights

The Finely Checkered Reversible Artisanal Rug from Simons Maison is a hand-loomed flat-weave wool dhurrie that flips every 3–6 months to double its usable life, effectively halving cost-per-year. Its reversible design features ivory with chestnut checks on one side and the reverse palette on the other, with intentional slubs and slight size tolerances as marks of authenticity. The ¼–½ inch thickness lies flat under doors and chairs, making it suitable for dining rooms and hallways. Natural lanolin repels liquid spills for 10–15 minutes, and wool self-extinguishes when exposed to flame. Care involves suction-only vacuuming, monthly shaking, and blotting spills with pH ≤8.0 cleaners. The rug temporarily sheds loose fibers initially, as a tradeoff for natural wool's benefits. At $5.30/sqft for the 150×240 cm size, it undercuts comparable 85% wool options.

Verified claims

Shedding
Flipping every 3-6 months doubles the rug's usable life.
Value
Reversible design effectively halves cost-per-year.
Traffic suitability
Flat-weave and reversible design make it suitable for dining rooms and hallways.
Price comparison
The Simons rug ($278, 150×240 cm) costs $5.30/sqft, beating the 85% wool Nuloom Drift ($6.33/sqft).
Spill resistance
Natural lanolin repels liquid spills for 10–15 minutes; maintain with pH 8.0 or below cleaners and air-drying away from heat.
Flame safety
Wool self-extinguishes when exposed to flame, offering inherent fire safety.
Vacuuming and shaking
Use a suction-only vacuum attachment and shake the rug outside monthly.
Spot cleaning
Blot spills with a cool damp cloth and use only WoolSafe-approved cleaners with pH ≤8.0.
Fire safety
Wool is naturally flame-resistant and self-extinguishing.
Artisanal imperfections
Slight size tolerances and organic wool slubs are intentional marks of handcrafted authenticity.
Dhurrie weave
Flat-weave wool dhurrie, reversible, ¼–½ inch thick; flipping evens wear and swaps colorway.
Wool character
100% natural wool repels liquids and resists flames; sheds loose fibers initially.
Colorway styling
One side is ivory with chestnut checks; the other reverses the palette.
Craftsmanship
Hand-loomed flat-weave yields a reversible rug with unique variations on both faces.
Thickness
Flat-weave rug is ¼ to ½ inch (6–12 mm) thick, lying flat under doors and furniture.
Underfoot feel
Hand-loomed pebbled texture with waxy feel, same both sides; temporary shedding.
Placement
Thin ¼–½ flat-weave lies flat so chairs glide and feet don't trip.
Care
Initial shedding is normal; suction-only vacuum and monthly shake reduce wear.
