A perfect choice for a family home, the Boston Wool Border rug’s beautifully hand crafted design will draw attention to your stylish living space. Traditionally made in India, this rug is hand tufted in 100% wool that feels warm underfoot and can even improve sound insulation for a quieter and comfier room. As it is crafted from a natural fibre, some shedding is to be expected and is a sign that the rug is rich in natural wool. ​​​​​​A bedding in time of a few months will allow the Boston rug to properly settle in and can be managed with a weekly vacuum, ideally with a suction type attachment, to remove any loose fibres.Don’t forget to buy our anti-slip mat [ here ]( http://www.dunelm.com/product/rug-anti-slip-mat-1000002949 ), available in a choice of sizes.This is a dense hand-made rug. When opening, re-roll your rug pile out and leave in a warm room for 24 hours before putting in place, this will help to reduce wrinkles and curling from packing. Do not pull any loose threads, please cut them carefully with scissors to remove. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight as this may cause fading of the colour. Turn your rug regularly to ensure even wear and to reduce pressure marks from furniture. Wool fibres may shed when new and during use, this is a characteristic of this product and is not a defect and should reduce with normal use and regular vacuuming.Before using any cleaning products on your rug, test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure it does not affect the colour. Clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean dry white cloth - do not rub as this may stain the fibres. Vacuum your rug regularly to remove everyday dirt, we recommend the use of a suction type vacuum cleaner as a rotating vacuum brush can cause damage to the pile surface.Please note: This rug contains Latex. Please note: Young infants should not be left unsupervised on this rug. Please note: Keep away from fire.
