Autumn Leaves Braided Jute Rug, by Capitol Earth Rugs. Jute is a natural fiber, considered to be a sustainable, environmentally friendly material. Water repellant, safe to put near a fireplace, spot clean with soap and water (or dry clean). This is for the Autumn Leaves Braided Oval Rug, which features stenciled artwork of pretty fall leaves designed by Phyllis Stevens, with braiding in mainly burgundy, olive, and grey. Measures 20 x 30 inches. As with all dyed jute products, take care to use a pad or otherwise protect items used with them, as colorfastness can be an issue.
