Knotted Hemp

Actively Stocked

Textured and warm, Knotted Hemp is processed, knotted, spun by hand—created without the use of chemicals or machines. There is very little energy expended in the making of the wallcovering. Hemp fiber is transported via foot and bus, woven with hand looms, and then air-dried after the paper-backing process.

The hemp fiber in our Hemp™ line is processed, knotted, spun by hand, and created without the
use of chemicals or machines. There is very little energy expended in the making of the product.
Hemp fiber is transported via foot and bus, handspun and woven with hand looms, and the finished
wallcovering is air dried after paper-backing process.
Hemp, a rapidly renewing resource, is a fast-growing plant that has been used through the ages in production of rope and paper. Characteristics of hemp fiber are its superior strength and durability and resistance to ultraviolet light and mold. It is considered an ecologically superior material to wood pulp
as the hemp plant yields 3-8 dry tons of fiber per acre—four times what an average forest can yield.

Maintenance

Wallcoverings made of fabric and natural grasses may be lightly vacuumed for normal dust accumulation.
Avoid direct, bright or reflected sunlight. Our wallcoverings are not guaranteed against fading or color change.
Maya Romanoff wallcovering materials are primarily formulated for dry-use areas.*
*Polyurethane can be applied to some of our products after installation to improve our products' retained beauty over time through increased resistance to occasional or light moisture. This coating is NOT a guarantee of waterproofing. We recommend testing first on a small, inconspicuous area. Maya Romanoff is not responsible for unsatisfactory results.
If a product requires more specific care and cleaning instructions, it will be noted on the product-specific installation instructions. Installation instructions come wrapped with every roll of shipped wallcovering and can also be downloaded from our website.

Cleaning

Before cleaning any product, we recommend testing first on a small, inconspicuous area.
If necessary, many of our products may be cleaned by blotting the soiled area with a soft, clean cloth dampened with a weak solution of a mild liquid detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. Please contact Client Services at 773.465.6909 to confirm that your wallcovering may be cleaned using this method.
Avoid getting the wallcovering excessively wet.
Do not use cleaners, solvents, or chemicals of any kind to clean Maya Romanoff products.
