Details

The rug is made of (90 percent) jute, which is a natural fiber. The fiber is extracted from the bark of the jute plant and goes through an elaborate processing cycle before becoming a finished jute product. Jute is an environment-friendly material, because the jute plant require very little water. 

As with all handmade and small batch items, no two pieces are exactly the same. We hope you will enjoy and celebrate these variations as much as we do.

• If you spill water or other liquid on the rug, remove it with an absorbent cloth
• Be aware that over time jute changes color if it is placed in direct sunlight
