Vacuum regularly with low suction to maintain pile and remove loose dirt. For spot cleaning, blot spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth β do not rub. For deeper cleaning, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent (no bleach). Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat. Do not iron. Rotate the rug every 6 months for even wear. A rug pad is recommended to prevent slipping and extend the life of the rug.

Momeni Simba SIM-4 β Hand-Tufted Ivory Runner Rug, 2'6" Γ 8'
Ivory runners are for the homeowner who wants the hallway to feel open and light, not grounded and dark. The Simba SIM-4 in 2'6" Γ 8' brings hand-tufted quality β a dense, dimensional pile that reads as more substantial than it photographs β to the entry-length runner format. In ivory, it lightens a dark hallway, reflects available light, and coordinates with virtually any adjacent room color without demanding attention from it.
The SIM-4 pattern is subtly textured rather than heavily geometric β it has enough surface interest to justify the hand-tufted quality while being restrained enough not to compete with wall art, gallery walls, or architectural details in the hallway. For entryways that are already working hard visually, this runner adds soft luxury without adding visual noise.
Ivory Runner Care in High-Traffic Entries
- Place a quality runner pad underneath β it reduces shifting and prevents pile compression
- Vacuum weekly with the pile direction (not against it) to prevent fiber stress
- Spot treat immediately: ivory shows stains less than white but more than grey
- Rotate 180Β° every 6 months for even wear at the threshold end

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Wool is a natural fiber that is hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and free of the synthetic chemicals found in many man-made rugs. It is naturally flame-resistant and does not off-gas VOCs. Wool rugs are a great choice for homes with pets and young children.
Some shedding is normal for new wool rugs β this is loose fiber from the manufacturing process, not a defect. Shedding typically stops after 4β6 weeks of regular vacuuming. Vacuum on a low suction setting without a beater bar to reduce shedding and preserve the pile.
Blot (do not rub) spills immediately with a clean white cloth. Mix a small amount of mild dish soap with cold water and gently dab the stain from the outside in. Rinse with cold water and blot dry. Avoid hot water, harsh chemicals, or steam cleaning as these can damage wool fibers.
For hallways, leave 4β6 inches of bare floor on each side of the runner. A standard hallway (36β48 inches wide) works well with a 2-foot wide runner. For wider hallways or open staircases, a 2.5 or 3-foot runner is ideal. Measure your space before ordering β our team is happy to help at [email protected].
Yes β runners are commonly used on staircases. For stair installation, you will need a runner that is long enough to cover all steps (measure each step's tread + riser and multiply by the number of steps). Use stair rods or a professional installer for the best result. A non-slip rug pad is essential for safety on stairs.
The most common rule is to leave 18β24 inches of bare floor around the rug in a living room. For a seating area, all front legs of the furniture should sit on the rug. In a bedroom, an 8Γ10 or 9Γ12 rug typically works under a queen or king bed with enough coverage on the sides. Not sure? Email us at [email protected] and we will help you choose the right size.
Yes β a rug pad is strongly recommended for safety and longevity. A pad prevents the rug from slipping on hard floors, protects your floor from scratches, adds cushioning underfoot, and helps the rug lay flat. It also extends the life of the rug by reducing wear from friction. We recommend a non-slip felt or rubber pad cut 1 inch smaller than your rug on all sides.
We offer free 30-day returns on all orders. If you are not completely satisfied, contact us at [email protected] within 30 days of delivery to initiate a return. Items must be in original, unused condition. We will arrange free pickup and issue a full refund β no restocking fees, no hassle.
