Description
Like an abstract contemporary work of art on the floor, the Velia wool rug catches the eye with its unstructured shape and prints reminiscent of a modernist collage. An original, hand-crafted creation by La Redoute Intérieurs. Product Details • 100% wool • 4000g/m2 • Thickness: 1.2cm • Weaving type: Handmade • Underfloor heating compatible: No • Interior Use:Yes • For outdoor use: No. Quality Info • Wool is a warm and comfortable fibre. A wool rug is also an excellent thermal and sound insulator. • Hand-braided, each piece is unique and may have small irregularities which make it authentic.. Colours and dimensions may vary slightly. Care Instructions • Once unrolled, you must wait a few days for the carpet to return to its initial shape. • To keep the edges flat, roll your mat in the opposite direction. Leave it like this for an hour then put it back flat and place a heavy object on it for 2 days. • New, the carpet may give off an odour which dissipates over time. Ventilate your room regularly to reduce it. • To preserve its appearance, rotate your rug regularly in one direction or the other to minimise localised wear in the same places (due to successive passages), and loss of colour due to regular light exposure. Care Advice • Some materials are very fibrous (such as wool) Wool rugs pill naturally during the first few months: this is a normal for this type of product and is not a defect. Remove the excess fibres by hand where possible, do not use a vacuum cleaner with a rotating brush as this can pull and tear the fibres. The pilling will improve over time. • For maintenance, we advise you to vacuum it very little the first month and then to vacuum it without rubbing too much always without using the brush. • Compatible with robot vacuum cleaners: No • Remove stains immediately with a clean, damp cloth. • Dry clean recommended. Dimensions • Width 160 x Length 230cm • Width 200 x Length 290cm • OEKO-TEX® Standard 100. Standard 100 certification by OEKO-TEX® tests textile products for harmful substances via an independent, international label.
Our Stylist Says
I love how the Velia wool rug brings a modern yet warm touch to a variety of interiors. Its abstract design and soothing colour palette make it versatile, working well in living rooms, bedrooms, or even neutral home offices. It's practical for adding texture without overwhelming the space and pairs nicely with both minimalist and eclectic schemes. To style it effectively, consider layering with complementary cushions or throws in similar tones to create a cohesive look, or let it stand out as a statement piece against neutral furniture. Its wool construction also ensures durability and softness underfoot, making it a good choice for high-traffic areas.
