This rug was hand-woven in Northern India before finding its way to your floor. It’s tight weave makes it ideal for high traffic areas, and supporting chair feet or table legs. It’s not super soft or loose, so it won’t catch on anything or shed too much in your home. Materials: 80% Indian wool (the weft) 20% Undyed cotton (the warp) Chanterelle is a Kilim rug. Kilim is the name for a thin, flat, tapestry-woven, graphic style rug. It is made by weaving the horizontal yarn (weft) through vertical yarn (warp). The rug is woven so tightly that the warp is barely visible. This makes for a very durable rug, that can handle weight and movement. 100% of the materials used to make Chanterelle are natural, which means the colors and patterns in your rug will be slightly different from your friend’s, for example.
