WASHING GUIDE: For 6' x 9' we recommend an 80lb (11.5cu ft) commercial washing machine. Please call your local laundromat ahead of time to determine if the right washer size is available. When it's time for a deeper clean, machine wash your rug with like colors on delicate with 1 TBSP of gentle detergent. Preferably line dry. Alternatively, tumble dry on no or low heat setting. SHELL AREA RUG: Shell is a solid-color rug with geometric line drawings in relief; the modern rug’s simple tone-on-tone effect is inspired by the accidental designs of beach tides MEDIUM PILE: This is not a thin, flat mat: it’s a thick, soft and cushioned medium pile rug; made of 100% recycled polyester and OEKO-TEX certified, the rug is soft underfoot NEUTRAL TONES: Effortlessly complementing any modern décor, this understated rug combines neutral bone beige tones; our designer perfects each style and hue to create the right mood PLEASE NOTE: To fix your matted down carpet, gently brush the carpet in both directions SHELL WASHABLE RUG: Shell is a better machine washable area rug — better feeling, better looking, better priced, and better for the environment. The solid-color rug has geometric line drawings in relief, like ancient ammonite fossils. The bone beige tone-on-tone effect is inspired by the accidental designs of beach tides: the smoothness of seashells eroded over time, imprints left by waves on sand, the organic textures of corals and rocks. And this washable area rug isn’t a mat – it is thick and soft, with ½ inch pile cushioning every step. A grippy, non-slip base holds the rug safely in position and the lightness and foldability make cleaning easy – just place the rug in the washing machine with like colors on delicate with 1 TBSP of gentle detergent, and line dry afterwards or tumble dry on no heat or low heat setting.
