The Story Behind This Rug
Jaipur Rugs' Lacuna collection is a distinctive artistic endeavor that brings together the traditional handwoven heritage of India and Persia with a contemporary approach to interior color. This rug was first woven from high-quality wool and silk yarns at a knot density of 10x10, then treated using the abrash (overdyed) technique with mineral dyes. The resulting rich color saturation and timeless appearance transform an ordinary rug into the focal point of a room.
Why Choose a One-of-a-Kind Handwoven Jaipur Rug
- Every rug is unique; the abrash (color variation) created during the overdying process is natural and never repeated
- The wool and silk blend pile deeply absorbs the overdyed dye, creating a fade-resistant luster
- Thanks to the 10x10 knot density, the pattern beneath the color remains visible, creating tonal depth
- Natural materials and mineral dyes minimize the risk of allergic reactions at home
- The handweaving tradition continues to provide sustainable livelihoods for rural families in India
Color and Pattern
A light and airy palette dominated by shades between sky blue and turquoise, with subtle arabesque patterns taking center stage.
Care Recommendations
- Regularly remove surface dust with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a soft brush attachment
- Treat stains immediately; blot without rubbing
- Annual professional rug cleaning is recommended; avoid washing it at home to preserve the overdyed color
- Keep it out of direct sunlight; filter sunlight with curtains to prevent the overdyed colors from fading
- Using a rug pad of a suitable thickness underneath will extend its life and prevent it from slipping
This rug was born from the quiet meeting of Jaipur's centuries-old craftsmanship and a contemporary artistic vision. Once you bring it into your room, you'll discover a different depth each time you look at it.

Protect Its Elegance
To preserve the original splendor and silky texture of Carpetdocia’s handwoven creations made with natural fibers—which add value to your living space—for generations, a careful care routine is essential.
Immediate Action and Liquid Spills
When a liquid spills, timing is critical. Using a clean, slightly damp cloth, blot the liquid gently from the surface without rubbing. Always work in the direction of the rug’s pile (the natural direction in which the fibers lie). Rubbing can damage the shape of delicate fibers such as TENCEL™ and viscose. If in doubt, stop immediately.
Routine Care and Light Balance
For your weekly cleaning routine, always use a vacuum cleaner with low suction. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance how natural yarns react to light and prevent uneven changes in color (fading), we recommend rotating your rug every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Care (Professional Cleaning)
Fine textures such as handwoven fibers, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the rug’s silky sheen and structural integrity. For a thorough clean, seek help only from professional rug care centers specializing in natural fibers.
