Why Choose a Wool Rug?

• Most high-quality wool is strong and durable, while still being soft to the touch.
• Resistant to water, dirt and stains, so it is easier to maintain than other materials.
• Absorbs moisture and dries out without developing mold or mildew – ideal in humid climates.
• Easy to dye and holds color well.
• It is an elastic fiber, so the marks from foot traffic can be easily brushed out.
• An excellent insulator.
• As a natural fiber, harvesting wool is more eco-friendly than synthetic fibers.
• Great at hiding dirt and looks cleaner and better for longer than other fibers.

The Benefits of hand-tufted rugs

Often compared to machine-made rugs in terms of quality, hand-tufted rugs are generally made of wool or a wool blend, providing durability, integrity and reliability. A hand-tufted rug is made using a quicker process than other hand-made rugs: the design of the rug is blue-printed onto a canvas backing and the weaver uses a tufting gun to trace the design and inject loops of yarn into the backing of the rug. Because of this process, hand-tufted rugs can be manufactured in a short time and are also incredibly inexpensive. The heavy pile also ensures that the rug doesn’t need a rug pad, a testament to its sound construction and durability.

Our hand-tufted rugs are also sustainable in that they are made from sustainable, renewable materials and with proper care can last over a decade.
