Ochoco Round rugs are typically made from Natural Fibres like Wool, Hemp and Jute. We also carry a range produced from Synthetic PET Yarn. These materials are affordable and come in a wide range of colours and sizes. The choice of material affects the rug's texture, durability, and maintenance needs.

To determine if a rug is hand made, examine the back of the rug for irregularities in pattern and colour, as hand-woven rugs often have slight variations compared to the uniformity of machine made rugs. Check for visible knots or loops on the reverse side, which are characteristic of hand knotting techniques. Additionally, feel the rug’s texture; hand woven rugs typically have a denser, more intricate weave than machine-made alternatives.

Hand Made (hand woven) rugs are known for their durability due to the quality craftsmanship and dense weaving techniques employed by skilled artisans. Made from high quality materials like wool or jute, these rugs are built to withstand heavy foot traffic and maintain their appearance over time. With proper care, hand woven rugs can remain a beautiful and functional addition to any space for many years.

To care for your hand woven round rug, regularly vacuum it with a low-suction setting to remove dirt and prevent damage to the fibres. Address spills and stains promptly by blotting with a clean, dry cloth and using a mild, rug-specific cleaner if necessary, avoiding harsh chemicals. For deep cleaning, consider professional rug cleaning services to maintain the rug's appearance and longevity.
