The field is undyed jute laid in fine bands that run the short way over the rug and shift between straw and a darker tan as the fibre varies along its length. Each of the two short ends carries a rust coloured border, a narrow band of small repeated motifs set inside a wider band of hooked diamonds and eight pointed figures on a paler ground. Beyond the border at each end is a row of long cream cotton tassels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt lies in front of a sofa with an armchair to one side. At 180 by 120cm it covers the floor between a sofa and a hearth or sits under a low table, and at 1cm thick it lies close to the floor. The tassels fall at the two short ends only, so those are the ends that read as the finished edge and are worth turning towards the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJute and cotton are woven together on a traditional Indian handloom, the jute for hard wear and the cotton for softness. Jute is a rain fed crop that needs little in the way of fertiliser or pesticide, and the fibre spins into a strong, durable thread. Akari is also made 150 by 240cm, and as a runner 66 by 200cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJute \u0026amp; Cotton\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.48kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the rug?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e180cm by 120cm, and 1cm thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it made in other sizes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
