Bremhaus Corve Natural Area Rug

A natural bamboo slat and seagrass weave in a warm oatmeal tone, power loomed flat so it sits low under furniture and doors.

Flattened bamboo slats alternate with twisted seagrass cord in a basket weave, which is what gives the surface its texture and its slight variation from row to row.

• Bamboo and seagrass

  Flattened bamboo slats alternate with twisted seagrass cord, which is what gives the surface its basket texture and its slight variation from row to row rather than a perfectly uniform surface. The tone reads as a warm, natural oatmeal that works as a neutral rather than a statement color.

• Flat, not plush

  This is a flat natural fiber mat, not a pile rug, so the feel underfoot is firm and textured rather than soft. The profile is low enough to clear most doors and let furniture legs sit flush against the weave instead of sinking into it.

• Material and pile

  The face is bamboo slat woven together with seagrass cord, power loomed rather than hand woven so the basket pattern stays even across the whole rug. There is no pile to speak of; the profile is 0.25 inches, flat and textured rather than soft. Underneath is a latex and felt backing rather than plain cotton.

• Choosing your size

  Sizes here run from a 2 foot 6 inch runner up to a 12 foot round, so start with the shape of the space rather than assuming a rectangle. In a living room, let the front legs of the sofa and chairs rest on the rug. In a dining room, leave enough rug past the table that a chair stays on it when pushed back to stand.

• About a rug pad

  The latex and felt backing already grips a hard floor well, so this mat is less prone to sliding than a rug with no backing. A thin pad can still be added for a bit of cushion, since a flatwoven mat like this has none built in, and it is not included. Keep any pad you add for indoor use only, matching the rug itself.

• Settles in fast

  This is a flat power loomed weave, not a cut pile, so there is no fluff to shed and no break in period where fibers loosen and fall. It does arrive rolled, so expect a curled edge and a crease or two at first. Lay it flat and weight the corners for a few days and it relaxes into place.

• Where it works

  A flat, firm natural weave like this holds up well in a living room, a dining room, an entryway or a home office, exactly as shown here, since there is no pile to crush or flatten under daily traffic. It is rated for indoor use only, so keep it off a covered porch or anywhere it could get rained on.

• Everyday care

  Vacuum with the beater bar and rotating brush switched off, since a spinning brush catches on the basket weave instead of just lifting dust. Blot a spill right away with a dry cloth rather than letting it sit, since a natural fiber weave like this is not meant to be soaked or wet mopped. It is indoor use only, so keep it away from damp floors.

• What ships

  The rug ships rolled by ground. Nothing else is included in the box: a rug pad and any furniture or decor shown in the photos are not part of the order. Check your size against the room before it arrives, since a rug woven this firmly does not fold flat for an easy return.

Good to know

• Sized from a hallway runner up to a 12 foot round, fitting an entry or a full room.
• Vacuum only, beater bar or rotating brush off. A hard floor is the intended surface.
• Indoor use only. Keep it away from bathrooms, mudrooms, or standing water.
• None. Unroll and let it settle flat before placing furniture on it.
• Furniture and decor shown are styling only. The rug is the product; sizes vary by the option you choose.
