The Chess Board: A Premium Hand-Tufted Rug
The Chess Board is a hand-tufted rug from Mae Artisan Rugs. Part of our
Contemporary Collection, this rug is crafted in India from 100% wool. The checkerboard pattern in grey and white brings a clean, monochrome geometric quality to contemporary interiors.
Artisanal Quality and Materials
Crafted entirely from 100% wool, the Chess Board offers the natural warmth, durability, and resilience that wool is known for. The hand-tufted construction creates a dense, comfortable pile with excellent colour retention. Each rug is tufted by skilled artisans using a hand-operated tufting gun for precise design work.
Styling Your Chess Board Rug
The grey and white checkerboard pattern of the Chess Board makes it a striking choice for modern, industrial, and minimalist interiors. The monochrome palette adds structure and definition to open-plan spaces, living rooms, and home offices. It pairs particularly well with dark furniture, concrete floors, and metal accents.
Care and Longevity
Vacuum regularly on a medium-suction setting. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can push stains deeper into the pile. Professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months is recommended to maintain the wool fibres. Rotating the rug every six months ensures even wear. Use a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping.
