Living up to its nickname as the as the Golden Fiber, jute is a staple in organic home decor. Hand-braided in India from natural jute and cotton fibers, our Braided Jute Collection features a variety of patterns and neutral colors that make these rugs the perfect base for any room's design. As soft as they are durable, these rugs are the perfect organic accent to any room's design. Handmade rugs should be treated more carefully than machine-made rugs due to the artisanal nature in which they are created. Remove any stains immediately by blotting with a clean cloth or sponge. Avoid using water as that might damage and discolor the natural fibers, instead, for tougher stains use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda. For dry debris take the rug outdoors and give it a good shake. Rotate for even wear.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Does a braided pattern rug work well in a high-traffic entryway?
The braided construction is inherently durable and resilient, making it a great fit for busy areas like hallways or entryways. The multi-tonal, hand-braided pattern is also excellent at concealing minor debris and everyday wear. To keep the rug looking its best in high-traffic zones, we recommend frequent vacuuming without a beater bar, as the rotating brush of a standard vacuum can occasionally snag the hand-braided fibers.
Is a 9x12 rug the right size for a large living room or bedroom?
A rug of this scale, measuring approximately 9' x 12'2", is considered an "estate size" and is ideal for anchoring large spaces. In a living room, this size allows you to place all the furniture legs—including the sofa and accent chairs—completely on the rug to create a unified seating zone. For a bedroom, this oversized rug fits perfectly under a king-sized bed, leaving a generous 2-to-3-foot border on either side to provide a soft landing for your feet in the morning.
What are the benefits of a natural fiber rug made of jute and cotton?
This rug is hand-braided from a blend of jute—often called the "Golden Fiber"—and cotton. Jute provides an organic, durable foundation that is sustainable and eco-friendly, while the addition of cotton fibers ensures the rug is as soft as it is sturdy. This blend makes the rug more comfortable for bare feet compared to 100% jute options, making it an excellent choice for family rooms or nurseries where children might play on the floor.
How should I clean and maintain a hand-braided natural fiber rug?
Because of the artisanal, handmade nature of this rug, it requires more careful treatment than machine-made synthetic options. Our care guidelines recommend removing stains immediately by blotting with a clean, dry cloth or sponge. You should avoid using water, as moisture can damage or discolor natural jute fibers; instead, use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda for tougher stains. For everyday debris, simply take the rug outdoors for a good shake and rotate it regularly to ensure even wear across the braided pattern.
Are natural fiber rugs suitable for coastal homes or humid climates?
Yes, rugs crafted from jute and cotton are staple elements in coastal and organic home decor. Their breathable, natural fibers are well-suited for beach houses and humid environments as they do not trap heat. To maintain the rug's integrity in these climates, we recommend keeping it in a well-ventilated area and using a rug pad to allow for air circulation and to prevent any moisture from being trapped against the flooring.
How can I tell if this rug is of higher quality than a machine-made version?
This piece is hand-braided in India, a region world-renowned for its textile craftsmanship. Unlike machine-made rugs that often have a glued-on synthetic backing, a hand-braided rug features a consistent, reversible texture that demonstrates superior quality and longevity. The "Golden Fiber" jute used here is selected for its strength and organic luster, providing a high-end, artisanal feel that machine-made polypropylene rugs cannot replicate.
