Product Care

Cleaning the rug

Vacuum Regularly. Avoid any cleaning agent with bleach or strong chemicals. It is best to try an area for colourfastness before using across a large area of the rug. We recommend to use a dry powder style of cleaner as they can be vacuumed out of the rug and do not leave any residue. When cleaning, always blot, and never scrub or rub abrasively.

DO NOT run vacuum directly over outer serged edge of carpet. This can create fraying. Clean spills immediately by blotting with a cloth or sponge. Remove any grease spots with ordinary dry cleaning solvents. If you do vacuum over the edge of the rug it can cause serge yarn to become frayed and torn. It is always best to test a cleaner on an inconspicuous spot on the carpet/rug before applying to the entire piece.
Professional or periodic cleanings using the power spray-extraction carpet cleaning method are recommended. You should have the smallest possible amount of cleaning chemical used when you hire a professional cleaner. Allow to dry flat on the floor.

Not recommended for use outdoors or in bright sunlight as the material colours may fade over time.

Zowie Baumgart

Zowie Baumgart is a Kombumerri & Butchulla artist born in Canberra and raised in her family’s traditional country in Southern Queensland. Zowie is a self-taught interdisciplinary artist working across a diverse medium. With a strong understanding and creative talent ever since her high school days, she is now diversifying into a more traditional art expression. Raising her own family has brought her closer to her family origins, connection to the land and ignited a renewed passion for the representation of her people’s oral history through painting. Her works represent the combined narratives of both her mothers and fathers clans, the Kombumerri people and the Butchulla of Maryborough and Fraser Island.
