Description
Artisanal and contemporary. This wool and cotton blend rug reinterprets the classic checkerboard pattern in natural, blended tones. Both graphic and traditional in its inspiration and execution: it creates a room of character, bright and discreetly ethnic. All our rugs are handcrafted, a guarantee of quality and uniqueness. Real decorative elements, thermal and sound insulators, they warm the atmosphere. Product Details • 80% wool, 20% cotton • Craftsmanship:Hand woven • Weight: 2000g/m² • Pile height: 5mm. Quality Info • Wool is a warm and comfortable natural fibre. In addition to being resistant to wear and durable over time, the wool carpet is also an excellent thermal and sound insulator. • Each piece is handcrafted, according to ancestral know-how. There may therefore be slight variations in colour from one carpet to another.. They contribute to the beauty of each piece and make it unique. Care Advice • Some materials such as wool are very fibrous and you can actually observe a piling during the first weeks of use: this is a normal for this type of product and is not a defect. Remove the excess fibres by hand where possible, do not use a vacuum cleaner with a rotating brush as this can pull and tear the fibres. The pilling will improve over time. • For maintenance, we advise you to vacuum it very little the first month and then to vacuum it without rubbing too much always without using the brush. • Remove any stains immediately with a clean, damp cloth. • Dry clean recommended. Sizes • Width 120 x Length 180cm • Width 160 x Length 230cm • Width 200 x Length 290cmDelivery:. Available for home delivery.
Our Stylist Says
I love this Dalmia checkerboard rug for its versatile, understated design, which works well in both contemporary and more traditional interiors. Its hand-knotted wool and cotton construction not only adds durability but also brings a natural softness underfoot. I’d recommend placing it in a living room or bedroom where it can serve as a neutral base, complemented by colourful cushions or artwork for added visual interest. To keep it looking its best, avoid placing it in high-moisture areas or exposing it to heavy foot traffic without a rug pad. Overall, it's a practical yet stylish choice that effortlessly elevates a space without overwhelming it.
