A Berber rug is a unique handcrafted piece, hand-woven with natural wool. To preserve its beauty and durability, here are some practical maintenance and cleaning tips.

🧹 REGULAR MAINTENANCE
To prevent dust buildup and prolong the life of your rug:

 * ✅ Vacuum gently once a week (avoid using a rotating brush).

 * ✅ Air out your rug regularly by exposing it to sunlight for a few hours.

 * ✅ Shake it out lightly outdoors to eliminate small dust particles.

🧴 STAIN REMOVAL

 * Act immediately: Blot the stain with a clean, dry cloth to absorb the liquid.

 * Use a mild solution: Mix lukewarm water with a bit of gentle soap or white vinegar.

 * Avoid harsh chemicals: These can damage the natural fibers.

 * Dry quickly: Let your rug air dry; avoid hair dryers or direct heating.

🛁 DEEP CLEANING A BERBER RUG

For a thorough cleaning, here is the best method:

 * ✔ Wash with cold water using natural soap (such as black soap).

 * ✔ Brush gently in the direction of the fibers with a soft brush.

 * ✔ Rinse thoroughly with clean water and squeeze out excess water without twisting the rug.

 * ✔ Dry in the sun on a flat surface to prevent deformation.

📌 WHAT TO ABSOLUTELY AVOID:

 * ❌ Washing machines (too aggressive).
 * ❌ Strong chemical detergents.
 * ❌ Indoor drying without proper ventilation.

💡 TIPS TO KEEP YOUR RUG LOOKING NEW

 * 🔹 Protect from heavy furniture to avoid pressure marks.

 * 🔹 Rotate the rug every 6 months for even wear.

 * 🔹 Use a non-slip rug pad for added comfort and protection.
