Story
Handwoven in Mexico by
The Women of Oaxaca
Featuring an of-the-moment palette of moody, saturated hues, this area rug can’t help but turn heads. Handwoven with locally sourced sheep’s wool, master weavers use plants, berries, and bugs (yes, bugs!) to create these brilliant shades.
Each one takes almost three weeks to complete. All made start-to-finish by a fair trade cooperative in Oaxaca. Also available as a small accent rug or runner.

Care
All our rugs are made from the finest natural materials. We choose pure sheep or llama wools, dye them carefully, and weave them for strength. Following these suggestions will ensure your rugs can be treasured for a lifetime.
Basic care:
Vacuum rugs lightly and avoid direct and prolonged sunlight exposure.
Treating stains:
If the stain was caused by liquid, act quickly to prevent from drying – use paper towels to absorb.
When in doubt, professional dry cleaning is always going to be your best bet. If you do decide to take matters into your own hands, a few tips for you:
- For wine, coffee, or tea, apply a solution of warm water, detergent and white vinegar with a damp sponge. Wipe with clean cloth and let dry.
- For oil, chocolate, lipstick, nail polish, or ink, scrub or scrape the stained area first. Then apply a solution of hot water and detergent with a clean cloth to absorb as much of the stain as possible. If required, leave the wet cloth overnight before wiping with a clean cloth to dry.

United StatesI bought this rug as a main piece in ridding my ex husband from my house. I adore the more feminine colors, the texture is absolutely lovely on the feet, the colors are vivid and rich, it matches with everything, and (importantly) it completely rid the ex. My only wish was that it came in a bigger size and also of note is that the darker colors do show light fuzz and bits. Love it and highly recommend!!!!
United StatesI grew up in the Southwest of Colorado. My Grandparents home was filled with beautiful Indian rugs they purchased living in and around New Mexico. I have one of them featuring Corn Dancers. I wanted a rug that could echo the memories of my Grandparents home and the Bandera has done just that, it's beautiful!
United StatesVery bright and vibrant rug. Fits perfectly in our space and adds that perfect pop of color!
