Braidedrugs, explained.

Strands of wool, cotton or other fibre are braided into long, thick ropes. The braids are then laid in rows, or coiled into a round or oval, and stitched together along their edges. The braid itself is the pattern and texture, so even a single colour has depth.

Family rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and entries: anywhere you want comfort and texture underfoot. Braided rugs are casual by nature and pair well with natural materials and relaxed furniture.

Vacuum regularly, checking that no stitching has come loose; a small repair early stops a braid separating. Use a pad and rotate the rug from time to time.
