Safavieh Dhurries Collection Area Rugs | sku-47219638

Safavieh Dhurries Rugs, sku-47219638, are indoor area rugs available in multiple sizes. A rug pad is recommended to reduce shifting and sliding. Vacuum regularly, especially in high-traffic areas, but avoid vacuuming fringe. For spills, blot promptly without rubbing. A mixture of water, white vinegar and mild detergent can be used for stains; apply only the foam, then blot away residue.

Professional cleaning is recommended for stubborn stains. For a rug made entirely of viscose, use a carpet sweeper or a vacuum on low power with the beater bars disengaged. Blot viscose stains with a damp cloth and mild cleanser; a little fabric softener on the stained area can help preserve softness. New wool rugs may shed.

A rug pad can reduce friction; vacuum a new wool rug 1-2 times weekly at low pressure, following the pile. Excess shedding generally diminishes within 4-6 months or less. Clip loose ends or loops instead of pulling them. Shipping creases usually settle; reverse rolling can help. Use furniture-leg protectors to prevent flattened pile, and limit direct sunlight to reduce fading.

For indoor-outdoor rugs, check the care label, sweep and vacuum frequently, and blot spills before sponge-cleaning with cold water. Periodic cleaning can include rinsing with a garden hose and drying both sides over a railing in sunlight. The viscose, wool and indoor-outdoor guidance applies only to rugs made from those materials or for those uses.

For 100 percent viscose rugs, a carpet sweeper is recommended.
