Tejal Area Rug - Desert
Bold geometric design, warm desert tones, flatweave construction. It’s true: The perfect rug does exist. Handwoven from the highest quality sheep’s wool, a material known for its durability, this showstopper can stand on its own and also looks incredible layered.
Each rug is handwoven by 14 master artisans in Bhadohi, India. From start-to-finish, it takes five days to complete, all made in a fair trade environment.
We recommend using a rug pad to reduce wrinkles and slippage.

A modern take on tribal/southwest. Perfect amount of visual interest for my room without overpowering. I may layer with a jute rug underneath for a more plush effect. Very happy with this purchase.

This rug is lovely, well-made and sturdy, and surprisingly comfy underfoot. Well worth the wait for restock!

This rug is so beautiful and is the perfect compliment to my living room! My friends who have seen it said it definitely gives off desert vibes. It's totally the look I was going for. You won't regret purchasing it!

The quality of this rug is great, the pattern is A+, but I have to say the colors don't match what the images portray. They look a lot warmer on the product page and like there are some undertones of clay and terra cotta. In person this rug is decidedly just brown. This is a nitpicky thing I know, but it is something I would want to know ahead of time if I was purchasing. I ended up keeping the rug because again the pattern and the quality were what i was looking for, and I think it fits the room, but I do wish the color was a bit more true to the pics.
Hi Kate, We appreciate your thoughts on our Tejal Area Rug - Desert. We would expect slight variations of color due to the hand-dyed wool, and we are so sorry it didn't arrive exactly as you pictured! Someone from the team will reach out to check in with you - feel free to drop us a line at assistant@the-citizenry.com if we can help!! Best, -The Citizenry Team

I’ve purchased several items from The Citizenry; this one takes the cake. Ties the room together beautifully, true to size and I couldn’t be happier.
