Ipswich Handwoven Jute Rug

Description

Features • Natural Fibers • Responsibly Sourced Overview A weighted border of proportional contrasting stripes, poignant in its simplicity, gives structure to this soumak weave rug. Soumak weaving adds texture, strength and dimension by wrapping each warp yarn with the weft, a technique that can only be done by hand. One of the modern creations from the design collaboration between Annie and West Coast designer Mark D. Sikes, a traditional tailored look with a twist of east meets west.

Follow these care instructions to maintain your rug and extend its longevity: Vacuum Regularly: Regular vacuuming and rotation should keep your rug in shipshape condition. Always use the standard floorhead and avoid rotating brushes to prevent damage. Rotate Often: Show your rug some love by rotating it every three months to help ensure it wears evenly. Remove Dry Spots: To remove a dried spot on the rug, scrape carefully from the outer edges of the spot toward the middle. This ensures it is lifted without spreading. Avoid Water & Moisture: Natural fibers like jute and sisal are susceptible to mold and mildew. Rugs should be dried as quickly as possible when wet by either hanging the rug to increase air flow, or by using a floor fan to help speed drying. If only a spot gets wet, blot with paper towels to soak up moisture. Clean the area with a damp cloth and mild detergent if needed. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Protect your rug by avoiding direct sunlight. If your rug is in a sunny spot, rotate it frequently to ensure even color distribution and prevent fading. Use Furniture Pads: Use furniture pads under heavy pieces. This prevents flattening and preserves the rug’s appearance. Professional Cleaning: To help maintain the rug’s appearance and longevity, we recommend professional cleaning when needed. Indoor Use Only: Designed for use indoors and on enclosed porches. Avoid getting the rug wet. Safety Note: Our jute, sisal, and hemp rugs are flammable. Avoid using them near sources of ignition. Disclaimer: Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, slight variations in color and sizing may occur, adding to their unique charm.
