Ares 46 Grey
Ares 46 Grey is woven from premium space dyed New Zealand wool blended with silky viscose for a look that feels effortless and elevated. The subtle tonal striping is created by the space dye process, which allows each fibre to carry multiple soft gradients of grey. The result is a rug with gentle movement, a natural depth of colour, and a beautifully handcrafted presence.
The alternating wool and viscose textures create a plush yet structured surface that feels luxurious underfoot. New Zealand wool brings natural durability, warmth, and resilience while viscose lends a refined sheen that catches light in the most elegant way. This combination makes Ares Grey both practical and sophisticated, perfect for bedrooms, living rooms, and curated interiors that call for quiet luxury.
Ares Grey pairs seamlessly with modern, minimalist, and serene design styles. It is a grounding piece with an artisanal feel that enhances a space without overwhelming it.

Handloomed wool rugs are beautifully crafted and naturally resilient, offering warmth, texture, and timeless style. With proper care, they can last for generations.
General Maintenance
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only vacuum or an attachment. Avoid beater bars or rotating brushes, which can pull fibers and damage the weave.
Expect shedding, especially in the first few months. This is normal for wool and will reduce over time.
Rotate the rug every 3–6 months to promote even wear and fading.
Spot Cleaning
Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel. Never rub.
For liquid spills, use a mild wool-safe detergent diluted in water. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Dab gently and avoid over-wetting.
Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or steam cleaners, as they can damage the natural wool fibers.
Deep Cleaning
Professional cleaning is recommended once every 12–18 months, especially for larger or high-traffic rugs.
Always inform the cleaner that your rug is handloomed and made of wool.
Additional Tips
Use a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping, add cushioning, and protect the rug's foundation.
Wool is naturally stain-resistant and flame-retardant, but it still benefits from gentle care.
