Green wool has a soft, matt look and feels warm under bare feet. The Gabbeh Lola in green is plain, so the colour of the fibre carries the whole rug.

Can the green Gabbeh Lola go under a dining table?

Yes. Pick it large enough that the chairs stay on it when pulled back, and our sizing tips show how to measure. Among Dining Room Rugs, a short pile like this one lies low under the table. This low pile rug suits a lounge or a bedroom just as well, and underfloor heating is fine.

Does the green Lola shed at first?

A little. New wool lets some loose fibres go in the first weeks, and they become fewer with vacuuming. Its pile is 100% wool on a wool backing, woven by hand in India in the style of gabbeh rugs, which puts it among jaloom's Wool Rugs. Handmade pieces can differ a little from the stated size.

How do I clean a spill on the green Gabbeh Lola?

Following our cleaning advice, put the green Lola on an underlay a little smaller than the rug and turn it now and then so sun and footsteps spread out. Should something spill, dab with a pale cloth from the edge towards the centre and do not rub.
