SHEDDING
Often new rugs begin to produce fluff as a result of loose fibres that remain in the rug after the manufacturing process. Vacuum regularly and this will reduce over time.
SPROUTING
Occasionally loose yarn ends will rise above the pile surface. This is a characteristic of this particular weave. Strands can be safely trimmed to the surface when this occurs with a pair of sharp scissors.
SHADING
All cut pile rugs are susceptible to exhibit characteristics of shading over time. This is the result of the reversal of pile direction during use causing areas of the rug to appear to have changed colour. This effect is not a manufacturing fault nor can it be prevented.
