The Collection
Handwoven flatweaves of recycled denim, the Denim Collection drapes beautifully—like your best-fitting pair of jeans. And just like your favorite jeans, they’re washable. Woven in a melange of blues, their simple geometric shapes have a faint 1920s influence; a little bit of art deco meets Georgia O’Keefe’s Abiquiu casita. There’s a reason denim is a wardrobe staple: it’s affordable, durable, good-looking, and versatile, and these rugs are no exception. Plus, textile remnants which would have ordinarily languished in a landfill are given a new life.
The Design
Round and woven in a braided technique, Selvedge has a navy center, a concentric cornflower border, and light wash denim speckled throughout.
The Material
Denim is a sturdy cotton fabric whose twill weave creates a subtle diagonal ribbing, which sets it apart from other strong woven cotton textiles. This piece is made of upcycled denim remnants left over from fashion industry production houses, which are braided and stitched into a circle.
The Maker
Our partner in Bhadohi began as a small weaver 40 years ago, and today they focus on sustainable, durable products, as well as creating and maintaining a healthy working environment for their artisans. Many of their processes involve handiwork: hand-picked fleece, handspun wool, hand-knotting, hand-carving and embroidery.
The Designer
Our in-house, all-star design team collaborates across three different countries. Based in Los Angeles, Istanbul, and Mumbai, they put a lot of thought into each and every collection they design. Starting with the weave itself, they determine material and technique, then create moodboards to capture the look and feel before starting to design. When designs are finalized, they conduct an extensive sampling process, perfecting each style and color before it goes to production.
Washing Machine Guide

- When it's time for a deeper clean, machine wash your rug with like colors on delicate with 1 TBSP of gentle detergent. Line dry afterwards, and iron if you wish.
- For sizes 6x9 and above, we recommend using a 60-lb washing machine—the large kind you find at a laundromat—rather than a home washing machine, which is usually 20-25 lbs. Line dry afterwards.
- If your rug is heavily soiled, we suggest you dry clean it instead
- As with most non-synthetic textiles, natural fiber and color softening will occur after washing, as well as slight shrinkage. We prefer this lived-in look, but if it's not your thing, we recommend dry cleaning.
