7x11 Multicolor Recycled Chaput Rug - 50300

Created as a new rug from reclaimed Chaput yarns, this handwoven piece uses a balanced mix of reclaimed tones with lighter woven passages that keep the surface open and relaxed. The result is a contemporary recycled rug with visible texture, natural variation and the kind of irregularity that gives handmade weaving its character. Geometric forms repeat across the full field in an all-over arrangement, creating movement from one end of the rug to the other. The pattern remains structured, but the varied recycled yarns soften the lines and give each section its own texture and tonal character.

Its construction begins with Chaput kilims that are carefully dismantled to reclaim their yarns. The recovered material is then reorganized and woven by hand into a new rug, preserving useful fibers while creating an entirely different contemporary design. The recovered yarns include a practical mix of wool, cotton, goat hair, hemp and assorted textile fibers. Their differences in thickness and texture are intentionally retained, giving the weave a tactile, layered character that cannot be reproduced by a perfectly uniform industrial yarn.

In an interior, the piece brings together sustainability, color and handcraft without looking overly rustic. It can sit comfortably beside clean-lined modern furniture, collected vintage objects or natural materials, making it a flexible choice for layered spaces. Small variations in color, line and texture are natural to both the reclaimed materials and the handwoven process, and they are part of what makes the rug visually individual.

No two rugs can be exactly the same, since the reclaimed Chaput yarns available for each weaving differ in color, fiber and thickness. This makes the finished rug a one-of-a-kind contemporary piece shaped by both traditional handweaving and a practical approach to material reuse.
