Joybird Amal Rug

Because of its flatweave construction, this rug is designed to fit into most standard home washing machines. Simply machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry.

The distressed look is achieved through the pattern design rather than physical wear on the fibers. The rug has a smooth, consistent flatweave texture that feels uniform underfoot, even though it visually mimics the appearance of a vintage, aged piece.

While it is durable enough for living and dining rooms, it is best suited for indoor spaces where you aren't tracking in heavy dirt or mud. Its polyester construction is resilient, but it lacks the heavy pile of a traditional entryway mat.

We highly recommend using a rug pad underneath. Since this is a flatweave rug, a pad will prevent it from sliding on hard floors and add a necessary layer of cushioning for comfort.

The rug is crafted from durable polyester, which is known for its color retention. As long as you follow the care instructions—specifically using cold water and avoiding harsh bleaches—the colors should remain vibrant over time.
