Flokati Rugs

Why Choose a Natural Wool Flokati Rug

Flokati rugs are deep-pile wool shag rugs inspired by traditional Greek Flokati craftsmanship. Each rug in our collection is made from natural sheep's wool with a long, plush pile that adds warmth, texture and a soft underfoot feel to any room. Because the wool is natural and largely undyed, the rug works with almost any interior style — from minimalist Scandinavian to warm boho. Wool is also naturally durable and resilient, which is why these rugs have stayed popular as living-room, bedroom and nursery rugs for decades.

How to Choose Your Flokati Rug Density (1100 / 1400 / 2000 GSM)

Flokati density is measured in GSM — grams of wool per square metre — and it controls how thick and dense the pile feels. 1100 GSM is lighter and softer, ideal for bedside rugs, nurseries, kids' rooms and other low-traffic areas. 1400 GSM is our balanced everyday choice — plush enough to feel luxurious, dense enough for living rooms and bedrooms. 2000 GSM is the thickest, most luxurious option, with a full, dense pile that makes a statement in larger spaces. If you are unsure, 1400 GSM suits most rooms.

Flokati Rug Sizing Guide

Our Flokati rug collection includes both rectangular and round sizes — from small bedside and accent rugs around 3 ft X 5 ft (90 × 150 cm) up to larger statement pieces of 8 ft X 10 ft (240 × 300 cm). Round Flokati rugs are available in three diameters (Ø 150, 180 and 240 cm). When choosing a rug size, measure the room first and consider how the rug should relate to the main furniture. For a living room, the rug usually looks best when the front legs of the sofa rest on it. For a dining area, choose a rug that extends at least 2 ft (60 cm) beyond the table edge on all sides so chairs slide in and out comfortably while still resting on the rug. Because each Flokati rug is hand-finished from natural wool, the final dimensions can vary by approximately ±3–5 cm from the listed size. If a room is tight on space, we recommend choosing the next size down rather than the next size up.

Flokati Rug Care & Cleaning Basics

Caring for a Flokati rug is simple if you follow a few basic rules. Shake the rug outdoors regularly to refresh the natural wool pile and remove dust. Vacuum gently using suction only — never use a vacuum with a rotating beater bar, as it can damage the long wool fibres and shorten the rug's life. For small spills, blot immediately with a clean dry cloth without rubbing, then let the rug dry fully before placing it back on the floor. For deeper cleaning, professional wool rug cleaning is the safest option. Avoid bleach, harsh chemicals, high heat and aggressive brushing — natural sheep's wool is durable but sensitive to strong cleaning agents. Light shedding is normal in the first few weeks of use and reduces noticeably over time as loose fibres trapped during weaving work their way out.

What to avoid

No bleach, no fabric softeners, no machine washing, no tumble drying, no rotating beater bar vacuums, no direct steam cleaning.
