❓ Frequently Asked Questions β€” Tribal Collection

What defines a tribal rug?

Tribal rugs draw from village and nomadic weaving traditions β€” geometric motifs, symbolic borders, and intentional irregularities that express the maker’s hand.

What materials do you use?

Only 100% wool, 100% silk, or a wool–silk blend. Note: if a tribal piece is a flatweave or Kilim construction, it will be 100% wool.

Are tribal rugs durable?

Yes. Wool’s natural resilience and dense hand-knotting make them excellent for living rooms, dining spaces, entries, and layered settings.

How do I style a tribal rug?

Let the rug lead: echo one hue in pillows or art, mix clean-lined furniture with collected objects, and allow 8–12" of floor reveal for a tailored frame.

Care recommendations?

Use a quality rug pad, vacuum with suction only, rotate seasonally, blot spills promptly, and schedule professional cleaning as needed.
