What are Earth Rugs™ Braided Rugs & Braided Table Decor?

Earth Rugs™ braided rugs and braided table decor are made from 100% organic, natural jute fiber harvested from the bamboo-like jute plant. These products showcase a weaving art practiced for centuries by native craftspeople in Bangladesh and India, while featuring rich colors and authentic designs rooted in American tradition. Jute weaving dates to the origins of rug and textile making, seeing extensive use across the British Empire from the 17th through the 19th centuries.

What is Jute?

Jute is a sustainable, biodegradable, reed-like plant that grows in fertile delta soil and is processed into soft yarn. First utilized in the Indian subcontinent for ropes and twine, its production boomed globally during the 19th-century Industrial Revolution to create burlap transport sacks. Cultivation expanded heavily into modern-day Bangladesh. While alternative materials emerged in the 20th century, jute remains a vital global industrial resource.

Are Earth Rugs™ Braided Rugs & Braided Table Decor Durable?

Jute is one of the strongest natural fibers known, famously used on seagoing ships before the invention of steel cables. Woven into braided rugs and braided table decor, these fibers provide lasting beauty and exceptional strength. They easily withstand commercial use and are durable enough to last a lifetime in the home.

What if Earth Rugs™ Braided Rugs & Braided Table Decor Get Wet?

Jute possesses natural water-repellent characteristics because it is a plant that naturally grows in water.

How are Earth Rugs™ Braided Rugs & Braided Table Decor Cleaned?

Step 1: Blot the Spot: Immediately upon spilling or staining, grab a dry towel and gently blot the area to absorb as much liquid as possible. Do not rub, as rubbing pushes liquid deeper into the braided fibers.
Step 2: Clean the Spot: Avoid harsh traditional spot removers. Instead, use a diluted 50/50 solution of warm water and gentle bleach-free laundry detergent or dish soap. Dip a clean cloth into the solution and blot the spot gently without scrubbing. Dab the area with clean, warm water to remove soap residue. For acidic spills like red wine or tomato sauce, substitute the soap solution with club soda.
Step 3: Dry the Spot: Because water can cause stains, dry your braided rugs or braided table decor immediately with a blow dryer or a nearby portable fan to prevent damage.
For Solid Messes: Gently scrape away dried solids using a dull butter knife or spoon, then vacuum the excess debris with a mini vacuum, whisk broom, or crumb sweep. Clean any remaining residue using the spot cleaning steps above.
