  • The rug backing should be completely air dried.

  • Surface that rug lies on should be completely air dried before rug is laid back down.


10. Do you ship internationally?

11. Are rug colors on your site true?

The photos on our website are the best quality possible. However, photos may not be actual representations of colors due to computer monitor settings and we cannot be responsible for differences in online colors and actual colors.

12. Are the rug sizes you list exact measurements?

Sizes are listed according to suggestions from the manufacturer. Please note that any rug machine made or handmade has a 3-5% variance depending on material across the industry.


13. What are the different rug fibers?
  1. Polypropylene (also called Olefin) is the most durable and stain-resistant rug fiber. It is a synthetic yarn and is the most commonly used area rug fiber. On average, olefin is soft in texture and is fade resistant. 
  2. Nylon is another synethic fiber commonly used in rugs. Its characteristics include: strong and elastic, retains its shape, and it is shiny. 
  3. Wool is a natural fiber that comes from sheep, most commonly from New Zealand and Australia. It is more luxurious than synthetic fibers and its properties include: 1) hard wearing and moisure absorbant; 2) lightweight and versatile; 3) resistant to dirt and wear and tear; and 4) fire resistant 

14. Do you recommend purchasing a rug pad?

Yes. Non-slip pads will prevent your rug from slipping and will prolong the life of both your floor and rug. We have pads for both hard surfaces and carpeting.

 

15. What is a dye lot?

Please note that rugs which are colored artificially are subject to differences in dye lots, which we cannot guarantee upon purchase. This is particularly applicable to items purchased with the same style and color but in varying sizes, there might be slight color and/or texture variations between the area rugs. This is due to the conditions in which the rug were made varying between dye lots, such as dyeing time and temperature.
