A mix of cut and looped pile gives the Dimension collection 5 x 8 ivory area rug its textured, striated appearance. Each rug is hand-tufted by a master artisan from India, who has learned the craft throughout their entire lifetime. Constructed of 100% hand-tufted wool with a cotton/latex backing, this rug is sure to stand the test of time. The serene palate of this collection enhances the hand-trimmed edges giving this collection an elegant look and feel. Don't forget the rug pad! Rug pads extend the life of your rug by reducing wear and protect your carpet and floors from the various rug backing. They also provide non-slip for safety, make vacuuming easier, and keep your rug smooth, flat and wrinkle free.
