Soft, matt and flat: that is how a flat cotton rug feels underfoot. The green Azizi runner is woven flat from 100% cotton, with a cotton backing, and the pattern is formed by the weave itself.

A green pattern for a long, narrow space

Cotton takes dye well, which is why the green in this Azizi looks clear and even. Woven on a loom by hand in India, it can differ slightly from the stated measurements. A hallway runner like this one marks out the way through the hall, and a deep green makes a plain passage feel finished. Over underfloor heating, the green runner lies happily.

Kitchen runner or kids' corner

In front of the worktop, a kitchen runner needs to be easy to shake out. Flat weave suits that: crumbs and hair come off without a fight. The same goes for a child's bedroom, where a flat surface is kind to building blocks and floor play. For kitchen carpets and rugs that need little fuss, a flat-woven cotton rug like the green Azizi is a good start. Besides green, the Azizi comes in beige, blue, brown, yellow and grey, all in the same long runner rug shape.

Looking after the green Azizi

Dab small marks with cold water and a mild detergent, as our rug care guide recommends, and let the rug dry right through before anyone walks on it. If your kelim is reversible, flipping it over now and then is a good habit.
