We have sizes 244x300cm or 244x330cm in stock! You are welcome to come and see these jute rugs in the shop to get an idea and feel about how your bespoke order will look.
If you are looking for a similar look yet smaller, super large, square or as a matching runner, then please contact us to enquire about a bespoke size to suit your space.

Thickness
Our jute rugs have a thickness of 1cm and the ends are just under 1.5cm in height and woven in a thinner braided weave. (Think about doors opening and closing…)
The weave is the same on both sides so this makes every rug reversible too.

Handwoven in India
Our jute rugs are handmade in India by skilled craftspeople with high quality materials.
The rugs are woven in a workshop in India with focus on good working conditions and fair wages in line with The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, key UN conventions, ILO conventions and recommendations.
Notes
Typical for natural fibres like this, is that there will be some shedding underneath in the first months. We do everything we can to minimise the shedding but it can not be completely avoided.
Jute is a natural material and like all natural fibres, can be sensitive to staining. Water marks however are fine and settle relatively quickly.

Bespoke Kilims
Our bespoke flatwoven kilims come in striped colour combinations of your choice. They are handwoven with premium materials and minimal design in herringbone or plain stripes.
They are handwoven with handspun wool which gives the kilim shades of certain tones, instead of solid block colours. This gives the kilim rug more variety and creates extra depth.
If pink is not your thing then why not try our stripes forever in mushroom, teal, soft tones or blue?

Origin
Our kilim are handwoven in Turkey by skilled craftspeople, using premium materials and 100% hand-spun wool. They have a flexible yet durable and hardwearing handle to them .
Handwoven rugs
Our kilim rugs are handwoven on a large loom and can go very large depending on your requirements.
Typical for handmade rugs is that they do not necessarily have perfect symmetrical designs. They have imperfections in design and this is also part of the charm of handwoven rugs and what makes every rug unique.

Kilim
Kilim rugs are flatwoven, without pile structure. As such they are hardwearing and durable and work well in areas with more footfall.
Kilims are particularly well suited under kitchen tables and allow chairs to comfortably slide in and out. Alternatively our short pile rugs are also good in kitchen areas and allow both texture as well as practicality.
Bespoke Berber Rugs
Or bespoke Moroccan Beni Ouarain rugs are handwoven by artisan weavers with premium materials. The lead time for a bespoke Beni Ouarain rug is 3 months.

Bespoke Short Pile Rugs
Our bespoke short pile rugs are handwoven with … a short wool pile!
Handwoven with premium wool, our checkerboard rug is simple yet sophisticated!
It is hand knotted with premium materials and handspun wool. The latter gives the rug extra depth, instead of using solid block colours, and translates in a more sophisticated and softer look and feel.

Handwoven Rugs
Our short pile rugs are all handwoven! Typical for handmade rugs is that they do not necessarily have perfect symmetrical designs. They have imperfections in design and this is also part of the charm of handwoven rugs and what makes every rug unique.
In this checkerboard design the check motifs are not perfectly square. They have a slight difference in size with yet a symmetrical, balanced look and feel.

Selecting the right style
Rugs help to set the tone of a room so it is important you decide on the feeling that you are trying to achieve. Whether the mood is luxurious, elegant, casual, contemporary or traditional, your rug will serve to enhance this feeling.
I personally love geometric designs as they are pleasing to the eye and help instil a sense of calm and order (and I love order!). Low-pile rugs such as flatweaves and hand-knotted pieces with a short pile are best for dining rooms and areas with some footfall. Alternatively, our Moroccan Beni Ouarain rugs are great to add texture, like in bedrooms or living rooms. They have a calm and minimalistic look and add comfort underfoot.
Selecting the size:
When it comes to selecting the size of the rug, each room is different, however here are some guidelines that are worth keeping in mind!
Sitting room: The front legs of the sofa or armchairs should sit on the rug and there should be an overhang of at least 15cm at the sides.
Bedroom: The most popular options are to either sit a large rug underneath the whole bed, bearing in mind a large proportion will be covered, or to opt for a runner on one or both sides of the bed. In either case, there should be a 20cm gap between the side tables and the edge of the rug, still ensuring that there is some rug to land on when getting out of bed.
As a rule of thumb, you should allow an overhang of at least 45cm at the base and sides. Often a slightly more generous overhang of about 60cm to 85cm is preferable, depending on the size of the room and furniture.
Dining room: Low-pile rugs such as flatweaves and hand-knotted pieces with a short pile are best here so chairs can slide in and out without catching. The rug should also be large enough so that the chairs do not fall off the edge when pulled out.
A rule of thumb the chairs should sit on the rug with an overhang of about 20cm. Alternatively, measure the dining table and add approximately 120cm-150cm to the length and/or width, depending on the shape of the table and layout of the room.
