INTERIOR RUGS

Our indoor hide leather rugs use only the best quality full-grain leather and hair-on cowhide, which are synonymous with beauty, durability and luxury.

ROUTINE CARE & MAINTENANCE

  • Vacuum regularly or shake/beat extra soil or dust outdoors.
  • Prompt attention to spills with a damp (but not wet) sponge and a little soap is all that’s needed in most cases.
  • If there is any solid matter, remove it with the blunt edge of a knife by scraping gently in the direction of the hair, then wipe with a damp sponge.
  • You can clean your cowhide by steam cleaning, being careful not to soak the leather backing. Do not use leather cleaners or conditioners.
  • Never wash in a washing machine or dry clean.

PERIODIC CARE & MAINTENANCE

  • Rotate your rug or move to a different location from time to time so that it wears evenly.
  • We recommend you keep printed and dyed hides out of direct sunlight to avoid any possible fading.
  • We recommend that white, cream, beige or other light-colored cowhides be sprayed with a light coating of colorless nubuck and suede waterproof spray from a cobbler or shoe shop when they are new. If you clean the cowhide with soap and water, you can re-spray the surface again for added protection.
  • It is ok to fold your cowhide rug, but it will need some time to relax after it is unfolded. The creases will come out after a few days of lying flat. You can also steam iron the hide on the underside or hairy side to reduce creases faster.
  • We recommend storing your rug in a dry place, preferably rolled around a tube core with a clean cotton sheet to protect it from dust and dirt while in storage.
