RECYCLED MATS, AZTEC NAVY INDIAN DESIGN RECYCLED RUG, $399.95
Handmade by artisans in India, these rugs are created from recycled wool offcuts which are then carefully loomed by hand, so no two rugs are the same. The hard-wearing natural wool fibres in these super-soft but weighty pieces are perfect year- round—as they’re both cosy in winter and cool in summer.
