The Malkia Rug is part of collection that boasts an all-organic, with exquisitely fine jute pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft, and an earthy natural color palette. The high quality jute chosen is biodegradable and recyclable, with a natural sheen because it is harvested only from Cannabis Sativa (commonly known as the "true hemp" plant), a quickly renewable resource that excels in durability, anti-mildew, and antimicrobial properties. Safavieh brings fashion excitement to the eco-friendly rug category with the collection's unique patterns, ribbed textures, and remarkable hand. The rugs are washed to soften the yarn, and then brushed to an even more lustrous sheen.
