Kasba Jute Rug - Medium

Just at home in a rustic setting as it is in a modern space, the Kasba Jute Rug sits proudly among our collection of natural floor coverings.

This timeless rug has been handmade by fair trade artisans in remote, rural communities of Bangladesh. The women first weave jute shapes and then assemble the Kasba pattern, before stitching the pieces together using needle and thread.

The result is like a contemporary patchwork that adds warmth, texture and character to any environment - an investment piece laden with meaningful making!

Taking care of your rug:

• Our rugs are crafted entirely by hand with natural jute and special care is required to maintain their beautiful appearance.
• We advise regular vacuuming of both sides of your rug to keep it fresh and free of dirt build-up. Occasionally take your rug outside on a dry day and shake or beat it to dislodge deeper dirt particles that your vacuum may not extract.
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight or heat as this will discolor the jute fibers.
• Blot water-based spills with kitchen paper or an absorbent cloth as soon as possible.
• Please do not rub stains or spills from your rug as this may spread the stain and loosen the jute fibers.
• For oil-based or colored spills, please consult a specialist rug cleaning professional.
• You may choose a rug protection treatment prior to installing the rug in your space to prolong the life of your rug and minimize discoloration. We recommend MicroSeal as they are experienced in treating jute rugs. Please read more about their treatment here: http://www.completeseal.com/

About the Artisans:
Three Fair Trade artisan groups in rural villages in Bangladesh are currently handcrafting our new rugs. Each artisan collects her work order and produces the rugs in her own home, working around other household duties and her family. Through making rugs, these formerly marginalized women are able to contribute economically to their families and community. In addition to learning new skills, crafting rugs gives them the opportunity to improve their lifestyle, build houses, install toilets, send their children to school, access health support and much more.
