What is a cork rug

OakViva cork rugs combine cork with textile fibers using traditional weaving methods. The material blend varies by design. SINTRA and NAZARE pair cork with cotton-based yarns; EVORA and MATERA use cork with jute and cotton; AMALFI combines cork, raw linen, and Portuguese wool. Review the individual product page for the exact composition.

These are woven area rugs rather than sheets of solid cork. Cork contributes natural texture and visual character, while the accompanying fibers shape the feel, structure, and pattern of each design.

Available sizes

The collection currently uses three standard size options. Measurements are shown in feet first, followed by centimeters.

Check room dimensions, door clearance, furniture placement, and traffic paths before choosing a size. Allow enough exposed floor around the rug so the layout feels intentional and doors can move freely.

Room placement

Use these rugs in dry interior spaces such as living rooms, bedrooms, offices, lounge areas, and selected hospitality settings. Consider furniture weight, foot traffic, door clearance, and the finished flooring below.

If movement is a concern, choose a rug pad that is suitable for both the rug and the finished floor. Confirm compatibility with the flooring manufacturer.

Care and spills

Vacuum gently using a suitable floor or upholstery setting without an aggressive rotating brush. Blot spills promptly with a clean absorbent cloth rather than rubbing. Do not soak the rug or use bleach, harsh solvents, or abrasive cleaning tools.

For difficult stains or a full cleaning, ask OakViva for the current care instructions for the selected material blend and use a professional cleaner familiar with natural-fiber rugs. Rotate the rug periodically if the room receives uneven sunlight or traffic.
