Product details
Hand-loomed viscose rugs balance silk-like sheen with everyday durability, woven on traditional looms by artisans who layer regenerated cellulose fiber with wool and cotton for resilient texture. The SUNPAN Lagos Hand-Loomed Viscose Rug brings that balance to high-traffic spaces through a tight-weave construction and ombre gradient pattern that conceals wear while adding warmth underfoot, available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping. Sourced from skilled weavers in India, this rug pairs modern aesthetics with practical maintenance -- spot-clean only, no machine washing required -- so you focus on living instead of upkeep.

Why Choose Artisan-Loomed Rugs from Sideboards and Things?
The Lagos rug's ombre gradient works as visual camouflage -- gradual color shifts hide stains and foot traffic patterns that show harshly on solid-color weaves. Its 0.4-inch pile delivers soft underfoot comfort without trapping crumbs or pet hair in deep fibers, making it a realistic choice for open-plan living areas anchored by handcrafted furniture. The 5' x 8' size fits under dining tables or in entryways, the 8' x 10' centers conversation areas, and the 9' x 12' anchors large primary bedrooms -- allow eighteen to twenty-four inches of floor space beyond furniture edges for balanced proportions. Pair with pieces from the LOOMLAN Rugs collection to layer textures across adjacent zones in modern transitional interiors.
How Does the Viscose Blend Perform in Daily Use?
The 65% viscose, 10% wool, and 25% cotton blend delivers luster without fragility. Viscose contributes the silk-like sheen, wool adds resilience, and cotton stabilizes the weave so the rug holds its shape under furniture weight. The hand-looming process creates subtle variations in tension and color saturation, meaning each piece carries unique character rather than factory uniformity. This rug requires spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent -- never submerge viscose in water or run it through a machine, as the fiber swells and distorts when saturated. For spaces that demand frequent washing, explore the Addison Rugs collection instead.
