This is a hand tufted wool area rug with a contemporary swirl design in a multicolor palette of blue, green, orange and red. Hand tufted means wool yarn is punched through a backing by hand with a tufting tool, then secured with a latex backing, which gives a dense, even pile at a lower price than hand knotted. The wool pile is about 1/2 inch. Sizes in this listing: 4' x 6', 5' x 8', 7'9" x 9'9", 8'9" x 11'9", 9'6" x 13'6", 11'9" x 14'9", and 4', 6', 7'9", 9'9" and 11'9" rounds. The bright colors suit kids' rooms, playrooms and modern living rooms. Made in India. Care: vacuum regularly without a beater bar, blot spills right away, and use a rug pad. Some shedding is normal in the first weeks of a new wool rug.
