Layered Rollakan Ruth Runner Rug

This rug features a low-profile pile height of 0.2 inches. Because it is a flat weave construction, it sits very close to the floor, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas like hallways where you want to avoid tripping hazards.

Yes, the combination of a high-quality wool weft and a sturdy cotton warp makes this runner quite durable. Its flat weave construction is specifically designed to withstand regular foot traffic while maintaining its shape and aesthetic.

Being handwoven using traditional Scandinavian techniques gives the rug an artisanal, authentic texture that machine-made rugs lack. You will notice slight variations in the weave that add character and depth to the pattern, reflecting the skilled craftsmanship involved in its production.

Because this is a flat weave rug with a low profile, we highly recommend using a rug pad underneath. A pad will prevent the runner from sliding on hard floors and provide a bit of extra cushioning, which helps protect the wool fibers from premature wear.

For regular maintenance, vacuum the rug gently without using a beater bar to avoid damaging the fibers. If you encounter a spill, blot it immediately with a clean, damp cloth—do not rub—and consult a professional rug cleaner for deep cleaning to preserve the integrity of the natural materials.
