Description
Architectural Symmetry with Natural Materials
Introduce a refined, tactile element to your floors with our hand-knotted square jute rug. Carefully crafted by skilled artisans, this piece uses high-grade natural plant fibres to create a grounded feel in large interiors.
The balanced 260 x 260cm square dimensions make this rug a strong choice for tricky layouts. Its semi-thick design features tightly spun fibres for added comfort, giving you a smooth surface that works well for everyday family living. If you are measuring your space and feel unsure about the proportions, view our rug size and placement guide.
Placement and Styling Guide
A large square rug is well suited to creating focal points and defining balanced proportions within a home.
- The Circular or Square Dining Layout: Placing this 260 x 260cm rug beneath a six-to-eight seater round or square dining table creates a balanced look. The flat weave helps chair legs remain stable when guests push their seats back.
- Symmetrical Living Spaces: If your lounge features facing sofas or a central coffee table layout, a square rug can unify the seating zone more effectively than a standard rectangular option.
- The Master Bedroom: Position the rug centrally under a king-size bed frame so the braided texture projects evenly from the sides and foot of the bed, softening timber or tiled floors.
- Large Entrance Halls: For square atriums or generous foyers, this rug creates a welcoming statement while helping to soften acoustics and handle foot traffic.
Key Features
- Softer Flatweave Texture: Spun from selected jute crops to create a tighter weave that feels gentle on bare feet.
- Excellent Door Clearance: A uniform 0.8cm thickness helps reduce trip hazards and allows the rug to sit comfortably under low-clearance doors.
- Double-Sided Longevity: Finished with identical details on both sides, allowing you to flip the rug periodically to extend its life.
- Natural and Biodegradable: Woven from 100% jute for a natural, plant-based finish.
Care and Maintenance
To protect the natural finish of the handwoven weave, vacuum regularly on a low-suction setting without using a rotating beater bar. If you are placing the rug on polished wood, stone or tile surfaces, we recommend using a high-quality non-slip underlay to improve cushioning and hold the rug securely in place.
Note: As with all natural plant fibres, avoid placing the rug in damp or humid environments. Treat liquid spills immediately by blotting firmly with a clean, dry cloth from the outer edges inward.
Ethical Standards
At Emily’s House, we believe beautiful design should support human welfare. Our rugs are produced in verified artisan workshops that comply with International Labour Organisation standards. This supports fair wages, safe working conditions and traditional weaving communities.
