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 Reshay 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.
What exactly is a Chindi rug and what makes this handwoven construction unique?
Chindi rugs are a celebrated artisanal tradition in India, prized for their earthy, textured feel and "boho" aesthetic. This rug is handwoven from 100% organic cotton fibers, meaning each piece possesses a unique character that machine-made alternatives cannot replicate. Because of this artisanal craftsmanship, the rug offers a more organic, natural look that serves as a sophisticated foundation for casual or classic home decor.
How should I clean a handmade cotton rug to ensure it lasts?
Because this rug is crafted from 100% natural cotton fibers, it requires a gentle touch to preserve its integrity. Based on our material care expertise, you should always blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth or sponge rather than rubbing. We strongly recommend avoiding water, which can damage or discolor natural fibers. For deeper cleaning, use a dry rug shampoo or baking soda. For regular maintenance of dry debris, simply take the rug outdoors and give it a thorough shake.
Is this fringed rug suitable for high-traffic areas like a hallway or entryway?
While this rug is durable, its handwoven construction and fringed edges are best suited for low-to-medium traffic areas such as bedrooms, nurseries, or formal sitting rooms. In these spaces, the delicate fringe can remain pristine. If used in a busier area, we recommend rotating the rug every few months to ensure even wear across the organic cotton fibers and to extend the life of the weave.
How does a 100% cotton rug perform in humid or coastal climates?
Cotton is a highly breathable, natural fiber, making it an exceptional choice for homes in humid or coastal regions where moisture can be a concern for synthetic materials. Unlike some materials that trap heat or feel sticky in damp air, organic cotton remains cool and comfortable underfoot. Its breezy coral and cream striped pattern specifically complements the light, airy aesthetic often found in seaside residences.
Can this rug be used on top of existing wall-to-wall carpeting?
Absolutely. Layering a flatweave cotton rug over carpet is a popular design technique to add a pop of color—like this vibrant coral—and protect high-traffic carpet zones. Because this rug is relatively thin (0.38" depth), it provides a stylish transition without creating a significant tripping hazard, though we recommend a rug pad for extra stability on any surface.
Is the 7'10" x 10' rug size appropriate for a standard living room?
Yes, this size (approximately 8x10) is a versatile "anchor" size for most living areas. In a typical suburban home or larger urban apartment, this rug is ideally sized to sit under the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs, creating a unified seating zone. For open-concept layouts, it provides enough coverage to define the space without overwhelming the room's proportions.
