Karin

Product catalog summary

Product Overview: The 'Karin' rug is a printed rug made from pure wool and linen, designed by Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg. It is inspired by classic crocheted squares and is available in two color combinations. The rug is named after the designer's grandmother, who also loved crocheting.

Care Advice for Woven Rugs: Regular maintenance is recommended to retain the rug's shape and appearance. Light-colored rugs require more frequent care. Using a rug underlay can prolong the rug's life and prevent slipping. Vacuuming is the preferred cleaning method, while beating or shaking is discouraged.

Cleaning Advice: Professional cleaning is recommended. Rugs should be washed flat with water and dried flat with good ventilation. Expect shrinkage of 3-5%. Specific care advice is available for hand-tufted long-pile rugs.

Choosing a Rug: Select a rug based on its characteristics, color, and design to suit the intended space. Consider durability and color tolerance for high-traffic areas. Ensure adequate space around dining tables for chair movement.

Environmental and Social Responsibility: Kasthall is committed to environmental sustainability, certified by ISO14001 and other standards. Rugs are made to order in Sweden using renewable materials.

Technical Specifications: The rug is made of 86% wool and 14% linen, with a 100% linen warp. Available sizes are 160x240 cm and 195x300 cm, with a total height of approximately 10 mm and weight of 3420 g/m2. It has a burning classification of Cfl-s1 and wear classifications of Class 32 (Commercial General) and Class 23 (Domestic Heavy). It is LEED certified and has high color fastness ratings.

Design and Legacy: Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg, Kasthall's chief designer for 25 years, is renowned for her contributions to the brand's success. Her designs, including the Karin rug, reflect Kasthall's design philosophy and have earned her numerous accolades.
