Animal skin rugs are gaining prominence in the world of interior design. These rugs are becoming more and more popular and in demand. Once you see how they decorate a room, you will understand why. A large number of goatskin rugs originate from Peru, while exotic and longer-pile versions of rugs generally come from Mongolia and China.
Goatskin rugs that remain in their natural color are highly sought after as accent rugs because they are so easy to match with other furnishings. Of course, if you need colors, sizes and shapes other than those that flow naturally, goatskin rugs can be custom designed and created especially for you and your home interior.
1. Goatskin rugs are very strong and durable. For long, silky, luxurious goatskin rugs, going over them with a good wire brush will keep them looking and feeling great. A good maintenance routine of regular brushing will refresh the rug’s luster and shine. Always brush in the direction the hair runs; never go against the hair or vice versa.
2. Gently gliding over the surface of the goatskin rug with a cloth and “turpentine” will also help the rug look its best. In reality, it only requires simple care to keep your goatskin rug looking its best for a long time.
3. For small, minor spills, act quickly and try to blot up excess moisture with a clean white cloth, some paper towels, or a sponge. Rinse the cloth or sponge several times, not wanting to put any of the spill you removed back on the carpet. If you use paper towels, throw away the used ones and get new ones to continue drying.
Never use a rubbing motion, as that tends to grind the stain into the carpet. Gently pat the area dry with a small amount of water/moisture. You don’t want to soak an area of your rug with excess water/moisture. You can add a bit of mild soap and gently try to remove a stain or spill. You should always work from the outer edges towards the center of the area to avoid any potential spread.
4. If a deep or stubborn stain appears on your rug, you can consult a professional cleaning company and not risk a spill or stain permanently damaging your goatskin rug.
A natural fur rug will add curb appeal to any room, along with a luxurious and warm feel. A wide variety of patchwork goatskin rugs that resemble quilts are also available. The mix and match possibilities are endless, giving you an unparalleled ability to use many themes when decorating your home with goatskin rugs.
You can also hang leather rugs on your walls. When you do, they can become a work of art. For large, bare walls that could use something unique to fill their space, consider an Animal Skin rug. It’s the latest in fashion design trends!
