Handcrafted rugs may vary by up to 7.5 cm from the listed dimensions. This isn’t a defect—it’s simply a charming trait of handmade craftsmanship.

Not at all! Shedding is natural for handmade rugs, especially those containing wool. Regular vacuuming (without a beater bar) helps minimise shedding over time. Follow our care instructions here to keep your rug looking fabulous for years.

“Handmade” means the rug is woven by skilled artisans with care and precision. Some finishing touches, like edging, may be machine-assisted but are always guided by expert hands.
