Description
Marked color of "Delicacy Plum" Ultrasoft, 63" by 94" long, made of 100% olefin and Made in USA. This nice traditional area rug will fill that large place under your coffee table or under a small dining table. Now let me tell you a little secret about rugs, especially those not of wool, but I even do this on my oriental rugs. I roll them up, take them outside on the sloping downward driveway, pour a little Dawn detergent over it here and there and hose until the water runs clear. Then dry in the hot Florida sun which takes about 24 hours. Yup, easy peasy. And even Wikipedia agrees, according to this item on oriental and Persian carpets: "Most carpets are washed before they are used or go to the market. The washing may be done with water and soap only, but more often chemicals are added to modify the colours. Various chemical washings were invented in New York, London, and other European centers. The washing often included chlorine bleach or sodium hydrosulfite. Chemical washings not only damage the wool fibers, but change the colours to an extent that some rugs had to be re-painted with different colours after the washing, as is exemplified by the so-called "American Sarouk" carpet." So stick with this researcher's methods, put it in the driveway, dump on the Dawn, get out that fireman's hose end and go at it.
