It is designed for indoor use as a floor covering and is available in multiple sizes. A rug pad is recommended for greater safety, and the rug has no fringe or binding, with a stitched selvedge tape edge.

Product Insights
This handwoven wool rug (90% wool, 10% cotton) offers a monochromatic low-pile design that provides styling versatility for varied interiors, grounding furniture and harmonizing with natural materials while offering warm/cool undertone choices for matching. Its natural performance includes biodegradability, fire resistance, VOC-free off-gassing, self-extinguishing at high temperatures, impact noise reduction up to 30 dB, and thermal insulation, with renewable wool that repels dirt via lanolin. The low pile ensures crisp pattern edges, furniture stability, door clearance, smooth movement, and safe layering over flatweave rugs. The main tradeoff is initial shedding that diminishes after weeks of vacuuming with a suction-only head; care requires suction-only vacuuming, prompt blotting, and annual professional cleaning.

Just kept shedding
The carpet looked nice enough. But it was covered in loose fibers when it arrived. I vacuumed it three times. It still kept shedding these little pieces of carpet. When I did my weekly vacuum the dirt would get stuck in the pattern of the carpet. Annoying and not practical.
Wow! Amazing quality
First time getting a wool rug. Beautiful. So much softer than store bought plastic rugs from big box stores. Wool is so much better. Has a bit of a smell at first. Well worth the purchase!.
Ruined our living room brutal shedding
The carpet will gets all over your clothes, completely that you have to change your pants. The wool is going everywhere all over the house. Gets all over everything! a nice colour and design but honestly not worth it
