Portofino Series 100% Natural Viscose Wool Cotton Handwoven Modern Living Room Rug SILVER
Portofino Series 55% Viscose 35% Wool 10% Cotton Handwoven Modern Living Room Rug – Silver
The Portofino Series Handwoven Rug is a modern, linear collection that combines elegance and comfort with a blend of 55% viscose, 35% wool, and 10% cotton. The silky sheen of viscose, the warmth of wool, and the lightness of cotton come together in a single rug. Its 10 mm pile height offers balanced softness, while its weight of 5000 g/m² creates a full, substantial, and long-lasting structure. With its Mediterranean-inspired modern design, it makes a timeless statement in spaces such as living rooms and sitting rooms. This variant stands out in a bright, cool silver tone, with the silky sheen of viscose changing with the light.
What Are Viscose, Wool, and Cotton?
The Portofino Series is made from a balanced blend of viscose, wool, and cotton fibers, with each fiber contributing its own characteristic to the rug. Viscose is a naturally sourced (regenerated) fiber derived from tree cellulose; its silk-like softness and natural sheen add radiance to the surface. Wool is a natural fiber obtained from sheep; it provides warmth, elasticity, and durability. Cotton, meanwhile, is a natural, breathable, and sturdy plant-based fiber that gives the rug balance and helps it retain its shape. In the Portofino Series, 55% viscose, 35% wool, and 10% cotton come together. This ratio balances the silky sheen of viscose, the warmth and durability of wool, and the shape retention of cotton; combined with a 10 mm pile height and densely woven 5000 g/m² construction, it creates a luxurious, substantial, and long-lasting handwoven rug, both visually and structurally.
Is Viscose a Natural Fiber?
Viscose is not entirely a natural fiber; however, it is a naturally sourced (regenerated cellulose) fiber. Its raw material comes from natural sources such as wood and plant cellulose; it is not a petroleum-based synthetic fiber like polyester or nylon. For this reason, viscose stands out by offering a natural, silk-like sheen and softness while being made from naturally sourced materials. In the Portofino Series, viscose combines with wool and cotton to create a balanced blend of natural and naturally sourced fibers.
Portofino and Mediterranean Inspiration
Portofino is a famous and elegant Mediterranean fishing village on Italy's Ligurian coast, known worldwide for its pastel-colored buildings, peaceful harbor, and clear light reflecting off the shore. The Portofino Series brings this Mediterranean inspiration into living spaces through a modern interpretation. The village's soft, airy color palette is reflected in the rug's warm natural tones and simple lines. Like the shimmer created by the Mediterranean sun on the water, the viscose fiber in its composition offers a silky sheen that changes across the surface depending on the angle of the light. With the contribution of wool and cotton, this sheen is balanced by a warm and substantial texture. As a result, the Portofino Series gives spaces both a calm, elegant Mediterranean atmosphere and a modern, luxurious character.

How Should a Viscose-Blend Rug Be Cleaned?
Portofino Series viscose-wool-cotton blend rugs should only be cleaned by professional rug-cleaning companies. Since the viscose and wool fibers in their composition are sensitive to water and excessive moisture, washing at home, machine washing, or wet cleaning is not recommended. For daily care, use a low-suction vacuum cleaner and gently blot any stains with a slightly damp cloth to preserve the rug's silky sheen, texture, and colors for a long time.

Protect Your Rug’s Elegance
A careful care routine should be adopted to preserve the original splendor and silky texture of Carpetdocia’s handwoven, natural-fiber creations—pieces that add value to your living space—for generations to come.
Immediate Action and Liquid Spills
When a liquid is spilled, timing is the most critical factor. Using a clean, slightly damp cloth, remove the liquid from the surface by gently blotting only—never rub. Always work in the direction of the rug’s pile (the natural direction in which the fibers lie). Rubbing can damage the structure of delicate fibers such as TENCEL™ and viscose. If in doubt, stop immediately.
Routine Care and Light Balance
For your weekly cleaning routine, always use vacuum cleaners with low suction power. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance the natural fibers’ reaction to light and prevent uneven color changes (fading), we recommend changing the direction of your rug every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Care (Professional Cleaning)
Delicate materials such as handwoven fibers, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the rug’s silky sheen and structural integrity. For deep cleaning, seek assistance only from professional rug-care centers specializing in natural fibers.
