Wool Rugs

Wool rugs are a timeless addition to your home, offering natural warmth, durability, and effortless style. Their soft, resilient fibres make them a practical yet luxurious choice, whether you're looking for a large wool rug to anchor your living room, a wool runner to add warmth to a hallway, or a round wool rug to soften a smaller space. With their natural insulating properties, wool rugs help maintain warmth in the winter while keeping rooms cool in the summer, making them a versatile choice for every season.

The beauty of wool rugs lies in their variety. Cream, beige, and white wool rugs create a light, airy feel, perfect for Scandinavian or minimalist interiors, while a grey wool rug offers a sleek, modern touch. For a more traditional look, opt for Persian-inspired patterns or intricate handwoven designs, which add character and charm to both classic and contemporary homes. Textured wool rugs, such as flatweaves, shaggy rugs, and high-pile options, add depth and interest, making them perfect for layering. In bedrooms and cosy living spaces, a plush high-pile wool rug enhances comfort, while low-pile, flatweave, and washable options work well in high-traffic areas like dining rooms and hallways.

FAQs and Helpful Information

How do you clean a wool rug?

To clean a wool rug, vacuum it regularly using a suction-only setting. Shake it out to remove dust and debris. For stains, blot with a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid excessive moisture, and consider professional cleaning for a deep clean once a year​. For more information read our guide on how to clean a wool rug. 

How should you vacuum a wool rug?

Use a vacuum without a rotating brush to prevent fibre damage. Set it to low suction and vacuum in the direction of the pile. Vacuum both sides occasionally to remove deep-set dust, and shake the rug outside for extra freshness​.

How do you remove stains from a wool rug?

Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth – never rub, as this pushes stains deeper. Use a mixture of cold water and mild wool-safe detergent or try using baking soda for stubborn stains. Test any cleaner on a small area first. For tough stains, a professional wool rug cleaner is recommended​.

Do wool rugs shed, and how can you reduce shedding?

Yes, wool rugs naturally shed, especially when new. Regular vacuuming with a suction-only attachment helps remove loose fibres. Avoid pulling stray fibres, trim them instead. Over time, shedding decreases as the fibres settle​. For more information, read our guide on how to make a wool rug stop shedding. 

Can you use water to clean a wool rug?

Yes, but in moderation. Wool absorbs moisture, so excessive water can cause shrinkage or mould and mildew. Use a damp cloth for spot cleaning and ensure the rug dries completely. For a full clean, use a wool-safe shampoo or seek professional cleaning​.

How do you remove pet hair from a wool rug?

Use a rubber broom, dampened rubber gloves, or a vacuum with a pet hair attachment to lift embedded pet hair. Regular vacuuming helps, but for stubborn fur, lightly mist the rug with water before sweeping with a rubber brush​.

How long do wool rugs last with proper care?

A high-quality wool rug can last 20–50 years with proper care. Regular vacuuming, prompt stain removal, and professional cleaning every couple of years keep wool rugs looking fresh and durable for decades​.
