Frequently Asked Questions

What is the fiber composition of the JOV Brillo rug?

Brillo is made from 70% New Zealand wool and 30% Belgian linen. This ratio preserves the structural, matte character of linen while the wool content provides meaningful softness underfoot and a degree of resilience over time.

Can the Brillo rug be ordered in a custom size or color?

Yes. Brillo is a made-to-order rug available in custom sizes. JOV also offers custom color development beyond the standard palette, making it well suited to bespoke residential and contract specifications.

How does Belgian linen behave in a rug construction?

Belgian linen is prized for its tensile strength and dry, structured hand. In a woven rug, it introduces a grounded, almost architectural quality to the surface, with a natural matte finish that resists the sheen common to synthetic blends.

Is the JOV Brillo rug appropriate for contract or commercial interiors?

Brillo is designed for both residential and contract environments. The wool-linen construction offers durability suited to higher-traffic applications, and the made-to-order format accommodates the dimensional and colorway requirements typical of contract specifications.

Who is JOV, and what is their design philosophy?

JOV is a rug atelier focused on architectural textiles, developing compositions in which material selection and proportion are treated with the same rigor applied to built spaces. Their work tends toward restraint, with an emphasis on natural fibers and surfaces that reward close attention.
