Pottery Barn Nicolette Natural Hand Knotted Wool Rug, 183 x 274 cm

Taking three or four weeks to complete, this rug was handcrafted by skilled makers using a traditional hand-knotting technique - a trade that's been passed down and preserved for generations.

Due to the natural fibres and craftsmanship minor imperfections may appear in the weave. These are not defects but common occurrences in items of this nature.

Yarn-dyed fibre has incredibly rich colour that holds its vibrancy over time.

This rug has been knotted by hand, the oldest and most individual way a rug can be made. This involves an intricate process of weaving by hand on a loom where yarns are tied one at a time, giving the rug a durable construction.

The benefits of a wool rug

• Warm and durable, wool feels beautifully soft underfoot and is long-lasting
• Naturally flame-retardant and odour resistant
• Water repellent so easier to clean
• Naturally biodegradable, wool is part of the circular economy and contains no micro plastics

About your new rug

We recommend John Lewis & Partners Rug Hold Underlay. It prevents your rug from moving underfoot and protects against colour transfer to the floor.

As this rug is made using natural fibres, shedding is to be expected. This will reduce over time, and should not have an impact on the lifespan or performance of your rug. When you first get your rug, please use the brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner whilst the shedding dies down. After that, when vacuuming your rug, use suction only. Rotating brushes may damage the fibres.

Blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub or use harsh detergents.

Attend to spillages immediately and blot with a clean, dry cloth to prevent staining. Dilute a small amount of appropriate carpet shampoo in water. Dampen a colourfast cloth in the diluted shampoo solution and dab the rug, lightly agitating, moving in the direction of the pile. Treat the whole rug and not just the affected area. To restore the appearance of the affected area, use a soft bristled brush to gently comb in the direction of the pile. Allow the rug to thoroughly dry.

Warning! Some shedding may occur.

Guarantee: 1 year guarantee included.
