Rug Care & Maintenance With proper care, your vintage rug can be enjoyed for generations. Routine CareVacuum your rug regularly to remove dust and debris. For most homes, once or twice per month is sufficient. Excessive vacuuming can accelerate wear on the fibers and foundation. When possible, use a suction-only attachment rather than a rotating brush. Deep Cleaning & RotationEvery few months, vacuum the back of your rug to remove grit that settles into the foundation. We also recommend rotating your rug annually to promote even wear and preserve its beauty over time. Professional CleaningTo maintain the integrity of your rug, we recommend professional hand-washing every 3–5 years, depending on use. Avoid steam cleaning or dry cleaning, as these methods can damage natural fibers and dyes. Proper hand-washing involves a pH-balanced shampoo, gentle brushing, thorough rinsing, and careful drying. Spill CareFor non-oily spills such as wine, immediately blot the area with a clean cloth or paper towel. Lightly dampen the spot with clean water and continue blotting until the stain lifts. If a stain persists, avoid scrubbing, which can damage wool fibers and drive the stain deeper into the rug. Instead, repeat the blotting process using a very mild, diluted detergent if needed. For oily or thicker spills, carefully remove excess material with a spoon or absorbent paper before blotting. If the spill is substantial, contains chemicals, or cannot be removed with spot cleaning, seek professional hand-washing as soon as possible. Important NoteSome vintage rugs feature richly saturated natural dyes that may release color when wet. Always test spot-cleaning methods in an inconspicuous area first, and be prepared to rinse thoroughly if color transfer occurs.
