Fanned Peacock Doormat 18x27 Polyester Felt

A peacock facing you with its tail fanned wide, deep greens and gold eye spots filling an eighteen by twenty-seven inch mat. The most color in this size.

A Full Range Of Color

• Green, gold and blue in one image. Dyeing all three through the felt is what keeps them separate instead of blending as the mat wears.
• The eye spots carry the design. They are the detail that stays recognizable even after the felt has taken traffic.
• Edges bound in black tape. The frame contains a busy image and keeps the felt from fraying.

Giving It Room

A dense image needs a plain setting. Set against a plain step or a single color floor, the fanned tail reads properly.

Eighteen by twenty-seven is the single door format, thin enough to clear most door swings.

Cleaning Takes Two Minutes

Rinse rather than scrub. Detailed artwork loses definition fastest when the nap is lifted, and a brush is what lifts it.

• Do hose it, or use a power washer
• Do sweep it with a broom for dry dirt
• Do vacuum on the floor setting
• Do spot clean with a mild cleaner

• Skip anything that foams heavily, since the residue holds new dirt
• Skip the stiff brush, which lifts the nap
• Skip the carpet setting on the vacuum, built to pull pile up
• Skip bleach entirely

Built To Be Stood On

A quarter inch of layered construction sits under the felt, and a stamped rubber sheet under that. The combination absorbs a footfall rather than shifting under it.

Black binding tape is sewn around all four sides, which is what keeps a busy image contained and the felt from opening at a corner.

Shade Protects Detail

Fine detail fades before broad areas do. Under a roof this image stays sharp; in direct sun the eye spots soften first.

Worth knowing: keep it off grass. Trapped moisture between rubber and lawn kills the grass and leaves the backing permanently damp.

Questions About This Peacock Mat

Is the artwork the same on the reverse?
No. The image is on the felt top only, and the underside is stamped rubber.

Will the gold tones stay bright?
Dyed through the fiber they hold well. Direct sun for hours a day will soften them over seasons, so shade helps.

Does a busy image hide dirt better?
To a degree. Detail distracts the eye from light soiling, though it does not remove the need to rinse it.

What size doorway does this suit?
A single standard door. It leaves a margin either side without overhanging a narrow step.
