Durable and textured, the hand-woven Beacon Collection offers a fresh take on the tried and true natural fiber rug. The carefully crafted patterns are softened by beautiful tonal variations that imbue each piece with its own unique character.

Product Features

Construction: Hand Woven
This Loloi rug was made in a GoodWeave Certified facility, which means that no child was involved in the process of making this rug from field to floor
Due to its handmade nature, each rug is unique and one of a kind
Material: 60% Jute, 40% Cotton
Jute is a fibre made from the stems of a tropical plant. Jute is renewable and bio-degradeable. The fibres are long, soft and shiny. When spun they become thick and strong, making jute rugs very durable and long lasting
The warm, earth tones of jute makes its a cozy piece that is best suited for casual settings although many use them in formal settings as well because of its naturally soft texture
The natural brown colour of jute makes stains less noticeable

About the Brand

At age 58, Amir Loloi still speaks with youthful excitement when he describes his travels to India. As owner and head designer of Loloi Rugs, Amir has traveled the Indian countryside for the past 25 years searching for the best weavers and craftspeople. During his travels, he would hop from village to village, visiting the artisans themeslves. Different shops have different specialities. At each factory, he sits with the craftsmen, sipping tea and trading ideas. It is during these conversations that these beautiful creations begin. Loloi's mission is to bring new life to a centuries-old craft. Whether it be the dipdyeing of wool or the intricate task of weaving, there is a proud artisan who keeps this time-honored tradition alive. It is behind the walls of these village factories where looms takeover machinery and artisans takeover engineers. Loloi is a brand that brings the best spaces together with intention, where a good rug does more than tie the room together, it sets the home apart.

Loloi is also a proud partner with GoodWeave International, a non-profit company that takes a holistic approach to ending child labour. Their efforts include conducting audits in rug factories in India to ensure no child, forced or bonded labour is used to make the rugs. They also raise funds to support child education in rural parts of India.

About Jute

While jute might remind you of the thick, coarse twine that you find at gardening stores, when weaved into a rug, jute is actually quite soft especially when blended with chenille. Made from dried plant fibres, jute rugs are often left in their original golden-tan colour giving them a natural beauty that is warm and inviting.

Because jute is a natural material, it is quite absorbent. This means that it is typically not recommended for homes with young pets that are not yet potty trained. Odours from doggie accidents will be difficult to rid. Jute rugs are also not suggested for humid or damp environments such as a bathroom or a mud room. If exposed to moisture for long periods of time, the rug will become moldy, mildewed and fall apart. Asides from these above mentioned factors, jute rugs are relatively low maintenance. Regular vacuuming usually does the trick.

Care Instructions

Clean spills immediately by blotting with a clean, white dry sponge or cloth
Appropriate rug pad is highly recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping, add cushion, and improve durability
The color may transfer and should not be placed directly over existing carpet
For vacuuming, use a vacuum cleaner without a beater bar or one where you can set the bar to the highest pile setting. If your vacuum has variable power settings, set on low. Vacuum full length of the rug, turn and repeat to the next area, rather than back and forth motion. We do not recommend the use of robot vacuum cleaners
Do not worry if lint appears as this is residue fibres produced during cutting
If you find a long or loose threads, cut it with scissors. Never pull it
Do not steam clean

The color of the picture is not representative of the actual rug. It appears much more of a sage green online and it has a muddy brown tone to it in person. Not happy with it and the return policy is very short. I wouldn’t purchase from them again knowing this issue.

Too much fiber dust!

The rug looked great initially, and the shipment arrived within a week. It was high-pile and soft. However, within a few days, an incredible amount of white fiber dust accumulated on and around the carpet. I tried vacuuming every few days, and each time, the entire dust bin would fill up (starting with a clean barrel). The fiber also clings on clothing as seen in the picture of my black pants.

I bought this carpet specifically for its anti-allergy properties, being a wool carpet. Unfortunately, the amount of fiber dust is unacceptable, and I can no longer use it in the kids' room. This rug should not be advertised as suitable for kids or as anti-allergenic if it produces this much dust.

Hi Lucy,

I'm sorry about the experience you're having with this rug. The rug you purchased in a wool rug and there is a tendency for wool rugs to shed during the initial 2 to 3 weeks of use. This is why we typically do not recommend wool rugs for children under the age of 3. Our in-house consultants would be happy to work with you to select another rug that is more suitable for your household. If this is your preference, please reach out to design@rugsbyroo.com and we'd be happy to make an exception and offer an exchange.

Love the look and softness of rug but sheds...for years

We got this rug in 2020 for our nursery. it is SO soft and cute. But over the years no matter how many times we have washed it, vacuumed it, it still endlessly sheds. It has definitely lost of lot of it's "plushness". I was hoping over time the shedding would stop...but 4 years later I think it is time we give up.

Hi Huanyuan,

I'm sorry about the experience you're having with the OHH cotton rug. The OHH cotton rugs are made using an extremely soft high quality cotton. It does have to be treated with care, which means vacuuming on the lowest setting possible without bristles. It also means when washing it in the machine, to use cold water on gentle cycle and also drying it on mild heat on delicate cycle.

Given what you've described and the volume of fibres you're extremely, it sounds like the fibres are being 'pulled' from the base due to either of the above reasons.

What I see would be useful to our customers is to provide more precise care instructions around how to care for our cotton rugs. These rugs are designed to last in your home for more than 10 years, so the care process is an important factor that contributes to its longevity. I will take this feedback and have the team create better content to share with our customers.

Much thanks for your feedback here. Should you need anything else down the road, feel free to reach out to our support team support@rugsbyroo.com

Great functional kids chair

Love that this chair is tested for chemicals and it's not toxic for kids, which is important to my family. Also love that the fabric unzips for easy cleaning, love that it can fold down into a little day bed. I would highly recommend this if you want something minimal design and easy to clean!
