Hand-Tufted Detail: The rug’s crisp border layout and geometric motif benefit from hand-tufted craftsmanship, allowing the surface to feel soft and substantial while preserving the clean clarity of the design.

Backing: A latex-secured canvas construction with a protective backing layer helps maintain the rug’s structure and supports long-term usability.

Production Process: The complete process includes design development, tracing, yarn preparation and dyeing, hand tufting, backing, shearing, finishing, washing, edge binding, and final quality inspection.

Artisans Involved: Depending on the production method, approximately 6–10 skilled people may contribute across design, dyeing, tufting, backing, finishing, and inspection.

Manufacturing Time: The full hand-tufting process can take approximately 4–6 weeks (30–45 days) from start to finish. Collection lead times may vary depending on stock and production scheduling.

Vacuum the rug regularly using low suction and a non-rotary attachment to help remove dust while preserving the pile and structure. Avoid harsh rotating brush heads, especially on handcrafted wool rugs.

For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry or slightly damp cloth. If needed, use a mild wool-safe cleaning solution. Avoid aggressive rubbing, as this may affect the surface and the clarity of the motif lines.

Using a quality rug pad is recommended to improve grip, enhance underfoot comfort, reduce movement, and protect both the rug and flooring.

Rotate the rug every 3–6 months to help distribute wear evenly, especially in living areas with regular use or directional sunlight.

Avoid excessive moisture, as over-wetting may affect the latex backing. For deeper cleaning, professional rug cleaning is recommended approximately every 1–2 years, ideally by specialists experienced with hand-tufted rugs.

The Taupe Greek Key Border Hand-Tufted Rug is available in a variety of sizes, from the 2 × 10 ft runner to the 10 × 14 ft large-format size, making it suitable for compact sitting spaces as well as larger living rooms and formal lounges.

Lead time and delivery time may vary based on the selected size, destination, and order status. Where production is made to order or completed in batches, the hand-tufting process itself may take approximately 4–6 weeks (30–45 days).

Each rug is packed carefully to support safe transit and preserve its structure during shipping. Packaging requirements may vary according to rug size.
