Karla Handmade Hemp Rug

Material 70% hemp; 30% cotton

Size 5 x 11 ft. Made in India.

Famous for their rich colors, warm tones, and beautiful ethnic motifs, these flat-woven rugs embody a splendid mix of cultures: the Greeks, Armenians, Kurds, Assyrian, & Turkic peoples have all contributed to kilim history. The rug is handmade in two of the most durable and gorgeous natural fibres: hemp and organic cotton, and make for a perfect rug material: they attract no dust or debris — which is a huge advantage for people with kids and four-legged friends.

Hemp also works as an outdoor rug — meaning if it does get wet, it does no harm to the fibres and is washable by hand. Not exactly the softest of materials for a rug, but works wonderfully in high-traffic areas as well.

Care: Spot clean using a damp cloth. Vacuum regularly. Brush for dust and pet hair Use a mild detergent for stains — testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.
