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.

Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Is a natural cotton rug a good choice for coastal homes or humid climates?
Yes, 100% cotton is an excellent choice for coastal or humid environments because it is a highly breathable natural fiber. Unlike some synthetic materials that can trap heat or feel sticky, cotton stays cool and comfortable underfoot. However, because natural fibers can be sensitive to moisture, we recommend rotating the rug regularly for even wear and ensuring the room remains well-ventilated to maintain the rug's integrity.
What is the best way to clean spills on a handwoven cotton rug?
Because this rug is handwoven from 100% organic cotton, it requires more delicate care than machine-made synthetic options. We recommend blotting any liquid spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth or sponge. Our care experts advise avoiding water entirely, as it can damage or discolor natural cotton fibers. For tougher stains or deep cleaning, use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda, and take the rug outdoors for a vigorous shake to remove dry debris.
What makes a handwoven "Chindi" rug different from standard area rugs?
Chindi rugs, like those in the Delonn Collection, are prized by designers for their artisanal "boho" texture and earthy appeal. Each piece is hand-braided in India using organic cotton, meaning no two rugs are exactly alike. This handmade construction offers a unique, variegated pattern that adds more character and visual depth to a room than a standard, factory-printed rug.
Is a 9x12 area rug suitable for a large living room or dining area?
Absolutely. A 9' x 12'2" rug is an ideal "anchor" size for spacious layouts. In a large living room, this scale allows for all furniture legs to rest comfortably on the rug, preventing a "floating" look and defining the seating zone. For dining rooms, this size is perfect for a table seating 8 to 10 people, ensuring that chairs remain securely on the rug even when pulled out.
Why choose 100% organic cotton for a home with allergies or pets?
Organic cotton is a superior material for health-conscious households. As a natural, low-shedding fiber, it doesn't release the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) often associated with synthetic rugs. For pet owners, the flat-weave braided construction is particularly durable against claws, and the lack of a high pile means pet hair sits on the surface for easy removal rather than becoming trapped deep within the fibers.
How can I style a navy and cream striped rug with my existing furniture?
The navy and cream palette functions as an "all-natural neutral," making it incredibly versatile. For a classic coastal look, pair this rug with light-colored woods, linen upholstery, and jute accents. In more modern or transitional spaces, the crisp stripes provide a sophisticated contrast to gray, navy, or beige furniture. To complete the room, our stylists suggest layering in navy accent pillows or cream throws to echo the rug’s color scheme.
