If you love a floral rug with a bit of drama, this slate blue jute rug is for you. Orange and gold blossoms stand out boldly on the deep blue field, joined by big flowers, golden rosettes and dark vines that curl from one end to the other. It is a hand woven Traditional Arts & Crafts design, made flat from jute for a natural, slightly nubby feel instead of a slick one. A cotton fringe at both ends adds a soft finishing touch. Since flatweave construction tends to wear evenly over time, the pattern keeps looking crisp in rooms that get regular use. Try it in a living room to add color and depth, beside the bed for a cozy floral accent, or in an office where you want something with personality. This Oriental style accent rug comes in multiple sizes and is made by artisans using natural fibers, so it brings a lasting, handmade feel to whatever space you choose.

Story Behind the Art: Arts and Crafts rugs trace back to a 19th-century movement that pushed back against low-quality factory production and prized originality and handcraftsmanship. William Morris, the movement's leading figure, put handwork ahead of machines and introduced a nature-inspired design sensibility to the home, seen in furniture, upholstery, wallpaper, and rugs with intertwining fruit, flower, and leaf patterns. Morris's rug designs have endured and still define Arts & Crafts rugs, known for simple, bold, relaxed themes drawn from nature. The style now covers many looks, including Art Nouveau patterns with flowing curved lines and florals, Mission style, geometric designs influenced by Native American patterns, American Prairie style, and Caucasian rugs hand-knotted in the Caucasus region of the Middle East. Their natural motifs and appealing color palettes keep Arts and Crafts rugs versatile and enduringly charming.
