Wool & Silk Rugs
Wool and silk rugs combine a hard-wearing wool ground with silk accents that add sheen and fine definition.

Wool & Silk Rugs: FAQ
Are wool and silk rugs durable?
Yes. The wool pile carries most of the wear, while the silk adds sheen and detail. They suit living rooms and bedrooms well; very high-traffic hallways are better served by all-wool rugs.
How should a wool and silk rug be cleaned?
Vacuum gently without a beater bar and use a professional rug cleaner, as silk is sensitive to harsh chemicals and over-wetting.
