However, all handmade rugs are unique by nature. Slight variances in color and design are common as they are each unique works of art. Because of these unique characteristics sizes may also vary slightly.

All stated sizes are approximations. In addition, some situations occur over time and could affect your rug’s appearance that is normal and not covered under warranty. This includes but is not limited to the following:

1. Due to the use of natural fibers and dyes, color and texture may vary slightly from one rug to another.
2. Roll marks caused by rolling the rug for shipment are normal and will disappear with routine vacuuming.
3. High rows can occur during shipping as well. This will disappear after a few weeks.
4. Shedding and pilling is normal for new rugs, especially those with cut piles. This will decrease significantly with routine vacuuming.
5. Matting and crushing can occur in all rugs, especially in high traffic paths. Regular and proper maintenance help to minimize these characteristics.
6. Highlighting, shading, and watermarking are caused by the reversal or bending of carpet fibers so that light is either absorbed or reflected from the surface.
7. Occasional sprouting, pulls or loss of single tufts of fiber is normal. Simply trim the tuft with sharp shears and vacuum.
8. Ridges or rows may develop in high-traffic areas.
9. Excluding our Indoor/Outdoor products, prolonged exposure to sunlight, humidity, heat, or certain atmospheric gases may cause color changes.
10. Wet areas, like bathrooms, may cause texture and color changes due to humidity and exposure to chemicals such as chlorine.
11. Rugs recently removed from a bag may have a slight odor. This will dissipate in a few days. Placing the rug in direct sunlight for 24 hours will aid in the dissipation.

Routine care and cleaning are vital to maintaining the long-term durability and appearance of your rug. For maximum appearance retention, rotate your rugs every 3-6 months. Keep your rug out of direct sunlight as much as possible. With the exception of our Indoor/Outdoor products that have been UV protected, rugs in direct sunlight will fade over time.
