The Morris rug is a hand tufted wool area rug in a traditional oriental design, with an ivory field and accents of yellow, green, blue, brown, red and rust. 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 pile is about 1/2 inch of wool, soft underfoot and easy to vacuum. Sizes in this listing: 2'6" x 10' runner, 4' x 6', 5' x 8', 6' x 9', 7'9" x 9'9", 8'9" x 11'9", 9'6" x 13'6", and 4', 6' and 7'9" rounds. The runner suits hallways and kitchens, the larger rectangles anchor a living room or dining table, and the rounds work in entryways and under a round table. 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.
