Natural fiber rugs

Natural fiber rugs are a great addition to any home and can add texture and interest just about anywhere you place them. Jute rugs and sisal rugs are the two most popular natural fiber rugs, and for a good reason: they are both durable, stylish and sustainable. But don’t forget! Wool rugs are also natural fiber rugs. And if you ask us, one of the perfect combinations is wool and jute in an eye-catching flatweave.

With the proper care, natural fiber rugs can be long-lasting staples in your home. That said, you do need to take care when cleaning jute and sisal as these beautiful fibers can easily be damaged. Explore our top natural fiber rug cleaning tips below, then check out our comprehensive care guide.

1. Vacuum your natural fiber area rug with a brush attachment or hand vacuum. Avoid vigorous brushing.
2. Treat stains immediately by blotting with a clean white towel. Avoid rubbing any type of stain!
3. Test any cleaning solution before you use it on your natural fiber rug. Choose a hidden corner, apply the solution and let it sit for a few minutes.

Sisal rugs are a timeless choice for just about any space. Sisal area rugs and jute area rugs are quite similar as both are made from durable natural fibers that can withstand heavy use in high-traffic areas. Sisal rugs also have a visually appealing texture and natural color that tends to add warmth and earthiness to a room. Like most natural fiber rugs, sisal rugs are ideal for layering; a custom-sized sisal can provide a large base layer for a textured look.
