Scandinavian Wool Rug Soft Rustic Floor Mat, Beige Nordic Rug

Just look at this wool rug. It's a unique & incredible rug made of natural sheep wool only in the region of the Carpathian Mountains in Ukraine. Basic information Dimensions: 32'' x 55'' (80cm x 140cm) Color: beige, ivory & brown Material: 100% sheep wool Weight: approximately 1.5 kg or 3.3 lbs If you would like any other size or color, write me a note & I will craft it for you :) How it is made: (See video in my shop) To make one medium sized blanket or rug we had to work long & hard. I use only natural wool from sheep that were raised in the high Carpathian mountain pastures, & natural dyes. At first, you have to wash & dry the wool thoroughly, then comb it with a special tool, which makes the wool puff up & resemble a cloud. The combed wool is easily manipulated & made into threads, which are then used to make a lizhnyk on a loom (handmade looms are mostly used in the mountains). The woven product is then placed in a special device - called 'valylo', a huge wooden barrel, narrowed down to the bottom. Water is then piped in with great force. The flow of water rapidly rises, creating a whirlpool in which the blankets spin for hours. After this process, lizhnyks become tight & fluffy. Recommended care Instead of wasting your time, give your item a nice vigorous shake, & most of the stuff stuck to it will come off :) If you accidentally spilled something like coffee or wine on it, run that area of the item under slightly warm water. Once the stain has been washed out give it a gentle squeeze. Afterward, put the item on a surface where it's going to get a lot of air, & make sure to flip it periodically until it dries. For the rugs, you can use a vacuum cleaner. in case the item is quite dirty, please use dry cleaning.
