Rugs from our online shop are made from pure wool, so as you can expect they will clean with relative ease.
With any spillage or accident involving liquids speed is of the essence. Immediately blot with plain paper kitchen towels, soaking up the liquid until dry. Any spillage involving food etc. scrape up the solids with a plastic spatula or knife and then blot up the damp residue with kitchen towels.
If any residue is left, a solution of carpet shampoo and warm water with a teaspoonful of white vinegar can be used. Carefully blot with a cloth soaked and well squeezed out. Allow to dry and vacuum. Carefully comb the pile in its natural direction to remove any matting. Do not be tempted to throw on anything like salt/soap powder/white wine on red etc. This will only exacerbate the problem, as most of these so-called quick fixes are worse than useless. You can add Scotchgard stain protection to your rug for a small extra cost at the checkout before paying.

Shedding is a normal characteristic of hand tufted rugs and occurs when fibres within the yarn work their way to the surface of the rug. Shed fibres expand with air and therefore appear to be a lot more bulky than they actually are. Do not become alarmed; your rug is not disintegrating! In fact, the effect of such fibre loss on the total pile weight is negligible. Please rest assured that shedding will not affect the durability or beauty of your rug in any way.



The hand tufted wool rugs available to buy in our online shop have been successfully tested to BS4790 (hot metal nut method)
This means If the rug is ignited from a small source of ignition such as a lighted match or a glowing coal the flame will not spread under normal conditions in the absence of a supporting thermal radiation. The test results relate to the behaviour of the test specimens after application of a small source of ignitions.


No. The rugs available to buy in our online shop are 100% wool and cotton backed. We use natural dyes where possible and use natural latex when applying backing.



Shortly after placing your order you will be sent a digital graph showing how your rug is expected to look upon completion. Once you have confirmed that you are satisfied with the graph, your rug will go into production. Generally, you will receive your hand made rug approximately 6 weeks after graph approval, although some large complex/pieces can take up to 8 weeks or longer. For rugs in our 'Faded collection' due to the levels of intricacy in production require a minimum of 8-9 weeks.
