Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dizzy technique used in Grizzly?

The dizzy technique is a construction method that alternates loop and cut pile within the same rug surface. This creates tonal variation and a textured depth that shifts subtly with light and viewing angle.

How does flamed felting affect wool rug performance?

Flamed felting singes the outermost fiber tips, which binds loose ends and significantly reduces shedding. The process also contributes to the rug's characteristic surface texture and dimensional quality.

Why is Tencel lyocell blended with wool in Grizzly?

Tencel lyocell is a plant-derived fiber prized for its smooth hand and subtle sheen. Blended with wool, it tempers the rustic character of felted fiber and introduces a refined luminosity to the rug's surface.

Is Grizzly appropriate for use under a dining table?

Yes. The flamed felted construction and durable fiber blend make Grizzly well suited to high-traffic areas. Its low-shedding character and ease of maintenance are practical advantages in dining settings.

Can Grizzly be ordered in custom sizes?

Grizzly is made to order and available in custom sizes. Specifications can be discussed directly, as JOV's production accommodates non-standard dimensions for residential and contract applications.
