Chindi rugs are sought after by amateur and professional designers alike for their earthy, boho flavor. Handwoven in India of 100% organic cotton fibers, the Delonn Collection takes a new twist on the classic braided pattern. Cream stripes pair equally well with gray, navy, and beige to create an all-natural neutral that goes with everything. Made from 100% Cotton, this handmade rug 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.

How do I properly care for and clean a handmade cotton rug?
Because this rug is handwoven from 100% organic cotton fibers, it requires more delicate care than machine-made alternatives. To maintain its artisanal quality, 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 cotton fibers; instead, use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda for tougher spots. For regular maintenance, simply take the rug outdoors for a good shake to remove debris and rotate it periodically to ensure even wear.
What is a Chindi rug, and what kind of style does it add to a room?
"Chindi" refers to a traditional Indian weaving style that results in a unique, textured appearance. This rug features a classic braided pattern with navy and cream stripes, offering an earthy, boho flavor that is highly sought after by designers. Its organic material and handmade construction make it a perfect centerpiece for casual or coastal-themed spaces, adding natural texture and a relaxed, sophisticated feel to your decor.
What size room or furniture grouping is this rug best suited for?
At approximately 8' x 10', this rug is a versatile choice for anchoring large spaces. In a living room, it is sized perfectly to fit under the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs, tying the seating group together. If you are using it in a bedroom, this size is ideal for placing under the lower two-thirds of a king-sized bed, ensuring you have a soft, natural cotton surface to step onto when getting in or out of bed.
Will this rug hold up well in a coastal or humid climate?
The breathable, organic cotton construction makes this rug an excellent stylistic and functional fit for coastal homes. Its navy and cream palette naturally complements seaside decor. In humid environments, it is important to keep the rug in a well-ventilated area, as natural fibers can be sensitive to persistent dampness. Following the "no-water" cleaning rule will help ensure the rug remains a beautiful and lasting part of your home.
Do I need to use a rug pad with this braided cotton rug?
We highly recommend pairing this rug with a quality rug pad. A pad serves two main purposes: it prevents the rug from slipping on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile, and it provides an extra layer of cushioning that protects the handmade weave from premature wear. Using a pad also helps the rug retain its shape and prevents the braided cotton from shifting or stretching over time.
Is this cotton area rug a good choice for high-traffic areas or homes with pets?
This rug is crafted from 100% organic cotton, a material known for being naturally durable and soft underfoot. However, because it is an artisanal handmade item, it should be treated with more care than a standard synthetic rug. While the braided weave is sturdy, we recommend placing it in medium-traffic areas—such as a bedroom, home office, or a formal sitting room—to best preserve the integrity of the handwoven fibers. For pet owners, the tight braid helps prevent snagging, but immediate blotting of any accidents is essential.
