Introduce natural beauty and warmth to your home with the Cekara jute rug, handmade by skilled Fair Trade artisans. Crafted with meticulous care using traditional braiding and hand-stitching techniques, this rug effortlessly blends timeless style with sustainable design. Perfect for elevating living rooms, bedrooms, or entryways, the Cekara rug combines durability with softness underfoot, and a natural, organic aesthetic.
The subtle chequered pattern is achieved in the assembly of braided squares, each oriented in different directions. Despite being crafted entirely from the same high-quality, non-shedding jute, the play of light on the varied angles gives the impression of distinct tones within the pattern, adding depth and texture to the rug’s appearance.
Thoughtfully designed and ethically crafted, this rug is more than just a functional addition for your home. Its ethical origins make it a meaningful addition to your home, blending beauty, functionality, and the story of the talented artisans behind its creation.
- 300 x 200cm approx.
- - Plaited jute fibres
- Each piece is crafted by hand stitching rows of plaited jute, using wooden frames as guides to maintain the correct shape and size

- - Our rugs are crafted entirely by hand with natural jute and special care is required to maintain their beautiful appearance.
- We suggest 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 discolour the jute fibres.
- Blot water-based spills with kitchen paper or an absorbent cloth as soon as possible. Do not rub stains or spills from your rug as this may spread the stain and loosen the jute fibres. For oil-based or coloured 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 minimise discolouration. We recommend MicroSeal, who are experienced in treating jute rugs and offer a DIY kit or a professional treatment service.
