Advantages of Jute Runner Rugs
There are multiple reasons to choose jute runners over other types of runner rugs. Jute is a natural fiber that's incredibly durable, making it an excellent material for rugs and floor mats. It has a rustic look and neutral color that goes with most any type of furniture. It's great for high-traffic areas and is easy to maintain. Jute doesn't shed excessively and lasts a long time.
One jute runner to consider at Pottery Barn is the Aiken style. It's made from a blend of jute and cotton, so it's soft and sturdy. It has a gently-distressed pattern for plenty of visual interest and is yarn-dyed for enduring color. Another option is the Chunky wool and jute runner. The base is crafted from unbleached wool, with boucle-woven jute on top. This hand-loomed rug is self-binding to resist curling around the edges.
There's also a heathered chenille and jute runner in the selection, which comes in multiple colors to coordinate with your furnishings. The addition of chenille to the jute results in a floor covering that's durable yet soft and smooth underfoot. It's yarn-dyed and has a basketweave design for classic good looks, and it has an odor-free synthetic latex backing that won't break down over time.
The Claymore natural fiber rug is yet another floor covering featuring jute. It's also crafted with cotton and rayon for softness and resistance to wear and tear. There are small natural variations in these rugs, which makes each one unique. The tight weave is excellent for heavy traffic areas, or anywhere you want to impart classic elegance.
No matter which of the jute rugs you choose, it's recommended to use a rug pad underneath. These pads not only prevent slippage but also help protect your floors. They come in runner sizes, and there are different styles available. If your rug pad is longer than the runner, it can be cut for a custom fit.
