Vintage Bordeaux Red carpet in wool and viscose

Matter 98% Wool 2% Viscose

Wool rugs impress with their comfort, resistance and ease of maintenance. The wools used for carpets are stiff and resistant to crushing. Handmade tufted or woven wool rugs, as well as knotted, provide excellent color retention. They combine visual comfort, acoustic comfort by absorbing noise in the velvet, and living comfort by playing a role as a hygrometric regulator. The wool's scale fiber prevents dirt from becoming embedded and promotes cleaning. At a carpet cleaning specialist, it will be washed with a mild detergent and plenty of water. However, regular maintenance with a brushless vacuum cleaner and occasional stain removal with bed base soil will only allow this cleaning to be carried out every 3 to 4 years. Toulemonde Bochart rugs are not always single material. To reinforce the character of a pattern, to emphasize a line, it is possible to combine wool with viscose, for example. This play of materials then allows you to play with matte/glossy oppositions for more vibrant designs. Generally, viscose only appears as a flash of light, with little influence on the fragility of the carpet. It is the dominant wool which will make the carpet resistant and easy to maintain.
