John Lewis Plain Linen Rug

In a versatile plain design that means it will look at home in any room, we love the indulgently soft, pure linen pile of this rug from our own-label collection.

The benefits of a linen rug

• Linen's long fibre length means it has great durability and is long-lasting and cool to the touch
• Linen is easy to care for as it does not have the tendency to pile
• Being a natural fibre, linen boasts an innate sheen

This rug has been knotted by hand, the oldest and most individual way a rug can be made. This involves an intricate process of weaving by hand on a loom where yarns are tied one at a time, giving the rug a durable construction.

About your new rug

• We recommend John Lewis & Partners Rug Hold Underlay. It prevents your rug from moving underfoot and protects against colour transfer to the floor
• As this rug is made using natural fibres, shedding is to be expected. This will reduce over time, and should not have an impact on the lifespan or performance of your rug . When you first get your rug, please use the brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner whilst the shedding dies down. After that, when vacuuming your rug, use suction only. Rotating brushes may damage the fibres.

• Blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub or use harsh detergents.
• Textile backed
• Attend to spillages immediately and blot with a clean, dry cloth to prevent staining. Dilute a small amount of appropriate carpet shampoo in water. Dampen a colourfast cloth in the diluted shampoo solution and dab the rug, lightly agitating, moving in the direction of the pile. Treat the whole rug and not just the affected area. To restore the appearance of the affected area, use a soft bristled brush to gently comb in the direction of the pile. Allow the rug to thoroughly dry.
