Yellow takes the seriousness out of a grey sofa, and this Kelim Chindi Uni in Yellow brings that soft, sunny tone as a round cotton rug.

• 100% cotton, cotton backing
• Handwoven in India
• Flat-woven, plain colour with fringes
• Machine washable at 30 °C
• Suitable for underfloor heating

Each rug is woven on a hand loom from strips of fabric cut from textile offcuts, so the colour distribution varies a little from one piece to the next. Because the weave is flat, the yellow version stays light and easy to move. Like all our cotton rugs, it feels soft and matt underfoot. Under a round dining table the yellow circle lies low and flat, a quality many of our dining room rugs share. Children can play on it too. It also suits a living room corner or the spot beside a bed. Measure the furniture first and pick the size that leaves it room.

Shake the yellow Chindi out, vacuum it lightly and dab small marks with cold water and a mild detergent, the routine our rug care guide gives for cotton. It can go in the washing machine at 30 °C, on its own, and should be dried flat, not in the tumble dryer.
