In dining rooms, position under tables seating six to eight with 24 inches extending beyond table edge so chairs remain on rug when pulled out.

Vacuum the hemp and recycled leather rug regularly without beater bar attachment to protect hand-woven construction. The flatweave design makes vacuuming straightforward. Spot clean spills immediately with dry cloth, blotting gently rather than rubbing to prevent damage to natural fibers and leather elements.

Use quality rug pad underneath for slip resistance and added cushioning on hard floors.
