The Josie Collection by Amber Lewis
The Josie Collection is part of Amber Lewis's collaboration with Loloi, specifically designed for machine washability without sacrificing style. Each rug features vintage-inspired distressed patterns with warm, neutral palettes. The power-loomed 100% polyester construction keeps the rug lightweight enough for home washing while maintaining a soft, textured feel underfoot. Five colorways are available: Dove/Gold, Earth/Natural, Ink/Earth, Ocean/Natural, and Silver/Natural.
How to Wash Your Rug
Wash the rug in a standard home washing machine on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. For larger sizes, a commercial or front-loading machine may be needed. Tumble dry on low or lay flat to air dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. The polyester fibers resist fading and maintain their pattern through multiple washes. Spot-clean minor spills between full washes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes of washable rugs fit in a home washing machine?
Smaller sizes up to approximately 5x7 generally fit in a standard home washing machine. Larger sizes like 8x10 and 9x12 require a commercial front-loading machine or a trip to a laundromat. Always check your machine's capacity before washing. The rug's 100% polyester construction keeps it lighter than wool rugs of the same size.
Will the pattern fade after washing?
No. The Josie Collection is power-loomed from 100% polyester, which resists fading from washing and sunlight. The vintage-inspired distressed look is woven into the rug, not printed on, so it maintains its appearance through multiple wash cycles. Use cold water and mild detergent for best results.
Are washable rugs good for homes with pets?
Yes. The Amber Lewis x Loloi Josie washable rugs are one of the best options for pet owners. Accidents, muddy paws, and pet hair can be fully addressed with a machine wash cycle. The polyester fibers do not trap odors the way wool or cotton can. The neutral, distressed patterns also help camouflage everyday dirt between washes.
