Rug materials · six fibres we weave
The fibre chooses how a rug will behave.
Wool, silk, cotton, jute, linen and bamboo silk — the working range of fibres in our catalogue, each with a story and an audit trail.
Wool
- RWS certified
- NZ & Indian
From audited farms to spun, dyed yarn — the fibre most rugs are born from.

Silk
- Mulberry silk
- Accent lustre
Five hundred metres of thread from one cocoon — knotted into highlights and all-silk accent pieces.

Cotton
- Plied tana warp
- Every rug's skeleton
The hidden foundation every handmade rug is built on.

Jute
- Rain-fed crop
- Biodegradable
The golden fibre — grown on rain, absorbs carbon, returns to the soil.

Linen
- Flax fibre
- Slub texture
Flax retted and spun into a cool, dry-handed yarn with a quiet slub.

Bamboo silk
- Plant-based sheen
- Fast-renewing source
The sheen of silk from a fast-renewing grass.
