The idea behind Uşak Indigo Traditional Washable Rug
Uşak, western Anatolia — 15th century onward
Where the design begins
Uşak is one of the oldest commercial weaving towns in Anatolia, and its carpets travelled so widely in the 15th and 16th centuries that they turn up underfoot in Renaissance portraits — which is why collectors still talk about "Holbein" and "Lotto" patterns.
How to read the pattern
The large-medallion Uşak layout repeats a single ornament so generously that the field looks cut from a larger cloth. That deliberate crop is the point: it implies the pattern carries on beyond the rug.
Made to be lived with
Soft chenille polyester is woven into a dense, low pile on a cotton backing with a non-slip finish. It is designed for everyday vacuuming and a domestic 30°C wash.
Guide de lavage selon le poids
Quelle machine à laver convient à mon tapis ?
Tous les tapis lavables Rug Weavers sont pliables. Choisissez la machine selon le poids sec du tapis, et non ses dimensions dépliées, puis lavez-le seul.
Neuf tailles Rug Weavers, dont les deux tapis ronds et le format 155 × 230 cm.
Choisissez cette capacité pour le format 200 × 300 cm.
Comment le charger : Pliez le tapis sans le serrer, placez-le seul dans le tambour et ne dépassez jamais la capacité de charge à sec indiquée. Utilisez un cycle délicat à 30 °C avec une lessive douce, remettez-le en forme puis séchez-le à plat à l’air libre. Suivez toujours l’étiquette d’entretien et la notice de la machine.
Care, without the guesswork
Wash, dry, back to the room.
Follow the sewn care label and use a drum with enough room for the rug to move freely.
-
01
Vacuum first
Lift loose grit with low suction and no aggressive beater bar.
-
02
Blot the spill
Use cool water and a clean cloth. Blot gently—never scrub the fibres.
-
03
Wash at 30°C
Load loosely, wash alone on a gentle cycle, and use mild liquid detergent.
-
04
Keep it gentle
No bleach or fabric softener; both can alter colour and reduce grip.
-
05
Air dry flat
Reshape while damp and let it dry fully before returning it to the floor.
-
06
Match the dry weight
Fold loosely and use a machine whose stated capacity is at least the rug's dry weight.
Always check the sewn care label and your machine instructions. Wash the rug alone and never exceed the machine's stated dry-load capacity.
