Vayu Dhurrie Rug
A traditional dhurrie rug in a dusty blush hue, this piece brings a light, airy feel to your home. Meticulously handwoven and hand-dyed using lightweight cotton, this flatweave rug is prewashed to make it extra soft and elegantly faded.
Ethically crafted by a group of 15 master artisans in Banskho, India, each rug takes 5 days to complete. All made start-to-finish in a fair trade environment.
We recommend using a rug pad to reduce wrinkles and slippage.
This beauty is also available as a wall hanging.

Made with higher standards. We preserve artisan craft by paying wages that average 2x the fair trade requirement.
All our rugs are made from the finest natural materials. We choose pure cotton or sheep's wool, dye it carefully, and weave it 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.
Small cotton rugs may be washed gently and hung to dry.
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’ve been trying to return this rug as it was not good for my space. I’ve been waiting for my return authorization for a couple of weeks. They now email me stating it was a “sample”. No where did it state that it was a sample! Not cool. Never again.

United StatesThe rug is super soft cotton on your feet, beautiful blush color. I love the look and feel. Perfect for my bedside.
United StatesWhile this rug is beautiful, the dimensions are wrong for the 3x5. The length is right, but the width is short by at least 5-6 inches, so it's more like 2.5'. Nice light pink/peach color with a lovely print. Planning to use in a nursery, but may return as it's more narrow than expected.
United StatesI love the color of this rug and was super excited when I first bought it. Over the past months however, the color has faded significantly, and it no longer looks nearly as nice. There are spots that are more faded than others as well. I love Citizenry so was super bummed about this rug!
