Braided Rugs

A braided rug is often associated with early America as it assumed the tradition of serving as a staple within many American homes. Originally created from scraps of clothing and other excess material, a braided rug served to function as a product within the home that would provide warmth and protection to its inhabitants throughout the harsh winter months.

The colors, designs and manufacturing processes of braided rugs have since evolved and have allowed this traditional floor covering to now boast more of a fashion statement rather than providing solely a practical purpose. In order to enjoy your braided rug to its full potential, proper maintenance is required. To help extend the life of your braided rug, be sure to vacuum it regularly while using the hard surface attachment. We recommend avoiding use of the beater bar as it can damage your area rug. Dry cleaning fluid is all that is required to remove spots or stains, though regular professional care is highly recommended. Lastly, it is not uncommon for loose threads to appear, but be sure to trim these and not pull at them.
