Product Insights
The Lokki Pure Wool Hallway Rug, a Marimekko collaboration with Brink & Campman, offers a hand-tufted cut-and-loop New Zealand wool rug featuring the iconic Lokki pattern, which is part of the Art Institute of Chicago's permanent collection and was applied to Artek furniture in 2024. Its natural lanolin resists spills and regulates humidity, though some initial shedding is normal. The dense, 0.47-inch pile provides a firm-yet-soft feel underfoot and eliminates trip hazards. Priced at $829 CAD—about a third of a hand-knotted New Zealand wool rug—it promises 3–7 years of durability in hallway traffic, but the latex backing degrades in 7–15 years, requiring rotation and a rug pad to extend life. Custom sizes are available, and the rug is SMETA-certified, with wool spun and dyed in Europe under strict regulations. Proper care includes professional cold-water washing annually and avoiding steam, bleach, and enzyme cleaners.
