Rodin Jute Rug 200x140cm - Brown

Our Rodin rug is woven entirely from jute, and it is the weave that gives it its character. A fine diagonal stripe runs across the whole surface, and the rug is laid out in broad blocks of different shades of brown, so it reads as one quiet colour from across the room and shows its pattern only as you come closer. At 200cm long and 140cm wide it is a medium size, large enough to anchor a seating area without covering the whole floor. Jute is a natural fibre with a dry, slightly textured feel, which gives this brown jute rug a relaxed, grounded look.

In the living room it sits comfortably under a coffee table, with room for the front feet of a sofa or a pair of armchairs to rest on its edge. It works just as well in front of a single armchair by a window, or beneath a low bench or console where you want to soften a stretch of bare floor. The muted brown pairs easily with pale wood, oak parquet, white walls and natural textures such as rattan and linen, so it suits a calm, Scandinavian-leaning room as readily as a warmer, earthier scheme.

The rug is flat woven from 100% jute, giving a low, even surface rather than a raised pile, so a coffee table or bench stands level on it. It weighs 4.2KG, which makes it easy to roll up and move when you rearrange a room or want to change the look for a season. Jute is a fibre that is happiest kept dry, so it belongs in the living spaces of the home rather than by a wet back door. To finish the room, set it under a dark wood coffee table, where the diagonal weave stands out against the darker top, or layer it over a larger plain rug for extra warmth underfoot.
