Collection: Natural & Wool Rugs

One of the main benefits of natural and wool rugs is that they are more hardwearing than synthetic rugs. A rug can be a significant investment, particularly if you choose a high-quality product — and a natural rug is something you can continue to enjoy for many years.

As natural rugs are more durable, they are suitable for every room in the home, including high-traffic areas such as the kitchen. Many natural rugs can even be used outdoors, as they are made from natural materials that can withstand the Australian climate.

Anyone can enjoy a natural or wool rug! They are ideal for those wanting to bring some personality into their homes while maintaining an elegant feel. They are also the best products for those who care about the environment — natural wool rugs are sustainable and have a much smaller carbon footprint than synthetic products. However, you need to consider your budget as natural rugs tend to be more expensive than synthetic ones.

You need to decide on the size, colour and style of rug you want. We offer different natural rug designs to suit modern and traditional homes, as well as a selection of natural shag rugs for the ultimate softness underfoot. There’s no need to stick to the same type of rug throughout the home — you can mix and match in different spaces.

The best way to ensure your natural fibre or wool rugs are in the best condition is to vacuum them at least once a week. If there are any spills or stains, act quickly by using a clean rag or paper towel to blot them up. Do not rub or scrub at the spill or stain as this might spread it and only embed it into the fibres further.

We do not recommend using steam, hot water, or abrasive cleaning products to clean your natural rugs. The molecules that make up the fibres of the rug might disintegrate, causing it to wear and tear.

Pros:

• Wool rugs are durable and can last for decades with proper care.
• Wool fibres are naturally stain-resistant and easy to clean.
• Wool rugs are soft and comfortable underfoot, making them great for living spaces.
• Wool is a renewable resource and biodegradable, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Cons:

• Wool rugs tend to be more expensive than synthetic options.
• They can shed in the beginning, which may require frequent vacuuming.
• Wool rugs can be more difficult to clean if not properly cared for.

When choosing a wool rug size for a room, it's important to consider the layout and furniture placement. Here are some general tips:

• In a living room, the rug should be large enough to fit under all the furniture, or at least the front legs of the furniture.
• In a dining room, the rug should be large enough to fit the table and chairs, with enough space to pull out the chairs without catching the rug.
• In a bedroom, a rug can be placed under the bed with enough space on the sides and foot of the bed.

Yes, wool rugs can be used in high-traffic areas as they are durable and can handle wear and tear. However, it's important to choose a rug with a high knot count and to rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear.
