Quince Fern Wool Rug

Hand-knotted rugs are constructed by tying individual knots onto a loom, which creates a much tighter, more durable structure than machine-made alternatives. This traditional technique results in an heirloom-quality piece that is designed to resist wear and maintain its integrity over many years.

While the wool construction is durable, this specific rug is best suited for medium-traffic areas like living rooms, bedrooms, or dining spaces. For high-traffic zones, we recommend placing it where it won't be subject to constant, heavy foot traffic to preserve the pile.

Yes, a rug pad is highly recommended. It will prevent the rug from slipping on hard floors, provide extra cushioning underfoot, and protect the wool fibers from unnecessary friction against the floor surface.

Regular vacuuming is essential, but you must use a vacuum without a beater brush to avoid pulling or damaging the wool fibers. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, and consider professional cleaning for deep stains.

It is normal for new hand-knotted wool rugs to shed slightly, especially during the first few months of use. This is a natural characteristic of hand-spun wool fibers and will typically subside with regular, gentle vacuuming.

The 0.25-inch pile is considered low-profile, offering a sleek, clean look that sits close to the floor. While it isn't a thick, shaggy rug, the hand-spun wool provides a soft, natural texture that feels substantial and cozy.
