Swiftly attend to spills by gently patting them away with a pristine, snow-white sponge or cloth. For a thorough cleanse, enlist the aid of a professional cleaner. Elevate your rug's comfort and safety with a fitting rug pad, enhancing grip, softness, and resilience. Embrace the natural shedding process. Employ a vacuum with a gentle touch, opting for a beater bar-free model or adjusting it to accommodate your rug's plushness. Glide your vacuum methodically across the entirety of the rug, pivoting gracefully between sections instead of oscillating back and forth.

During transit (Shipping), if the texture of the rug will be pressed and there may be some visible creases. Please note that, this is not a defect and it should be unnoticeable after a few days.
