Mitla Accent Rug
Bold architectural pattern. Sun-drenched palette. Incredibly soft under foot. To say this is the perfect accent rug would be an understatement. Handwoven from durable sheep’s wool, its flatweave construction makes this rug perfect for high traffic areas. And those bold hues? They’re made using 100% natural dyes (no chemicals here).
Each rug takes about a week to complete, all handcrafted by a cooperative of master weavers in Oaxaca. All made start-to-finish in a fair trade environment.
We recommend a rug pad to reduce wrinkles and slippage.
Note: To make this rug a wall hanging, add our custom Maple Wood Rug Hanger.

United StatesNot as high of quality as expected
This piece came in a timely manner, was overall well made, but the quality of color did not meet my expectations.

United StatesAn amazing rug with a few caveats
Although the colors, texture, and design of this rug are beautiful, it was shipped tightly folded instead of rolled. As a result, it has a sharp visible crease down the center that I haven’t been able to get rid of. Additionally, the rug does not lay flat on the ground like it does in the pictures on the website. The edges curl up a few inches off the ground. I tried laying heavy dumbbells on the corners for a couple weeks, but they still curl up. A Citizenry rep told me this is typical of all the Mitla Accent rugs and that it would relax over time, so hopefully that is the case. Overall, I’m still happy with the purchase, but I would’ve appreciated a disclaimer so I had a better idea of what to expect.

I was so excited to receive this rug. When I received it, it arrived folded in the box. It must have been folded for some time because I could not get the creases out by putting heavy books on the crease. I have never seen or received a rug that was not rolled for shipping. I also noticed one edge of the rug had some loose stitching, showing the white cross stitching. I will be returning the rug. Thank you for your arrention.

United StatesBeautiful
This rug is beautiful and soft underfoot. Really perfect in my space. I wish it came in larger area rug sizes! My only disappointment is that I had to iron the rug, as it came folded instead of rolled, and some evidence of the folding remains; also one corner will not lay down even with repeated ironing. Hoping it will settle with time.
