8x11 Black Recycled Chaput Rug - 50319

Handwoven in Turkey from reclaimed Chaput fibers, this recycled rug is defined by a softened, naturally varied palette with deeper woven sections that add contrast and visual weight. The changing yarns create a richly textured surface and give the design a one-of-a-kind contemporary identity. The composition has a clean contemporary character, allowing color, texture and the irregularity of the reclaimed yarns to define the surface. The result feels modern without losing the warmth and individuality of handweaving.

The starting point for this rug is a group of Chaput kilims that are taken apart so their yarns can be reused. The recovered fibers are selected, combined and handwoven again, transforming existing material into a new contemporary floor textile. The fiber mix may combine wool, cotton, goat hair, hemp and other reclaimed textile materials from the original Chaput kilims. The variety of fibers gives the finished surface a richly tactile quality and makes every rug visually distinct.

The rug works especially well in contemporary, modern, eclectic and relaxed interiors where natural texture is as important as color. It can anchor a living room or bedroom, add warmth to a dining area, or introduce a distinctive handmade element to an otherwise minimal space. 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.

The result is a genuinely individual recycled rug whose character comes from both the handwoven process and the previous life of its materials. For interiors that value craftsmanship and thoughtful reuse, it offers a distinctive alternative to a newly manufactured rug.
