The rug is beautiful I love the natural variation of blacks and greys in the stripes and the thickness of the rug is wonderful, I’ve had the rug for less than a year now and my main 2 complaints is it’s nearly impossible to clean even a small stain. I even paid professionals to clean it and even that had no effect unfortunately. Also, this is in a low traffic area so I very rarely vacuum it and do so carefully cause of the thick fibers but it’s still shedding quite a few fibers.
