How to choose a raffia rug?
Choosing a raffia rug that's right for your home depends on several essential criteria. First, consider the rug's size : our small round rugs measure between 1 m and 1.40 m in diameter, making them perfect for delineating a living room, bedroom, or reading area without overwhelming the space. Measure the area you want to decorate and consider the furniture layout to choose a harmonious size.
Next, consider color and style . Dyed raffia offers a diverse palette, from warm tones like saffron, brown, or coral, to softer shades like mauve or blue. Choose a color that complements the furniture and the brightness of the room. Raffia rugs bring a bohemian, natural, and warm atmosphere, ideal for ethnic, Scandinavian, or contemporary decors.
Finally, don't forget maintenance : raffia is a strong and durable fiber but requires regular vacuum cleaning and protection against humidity. Choosing an INTIMANI rug means choosing a unique, handcrafted piece that combines aesthetics, ethics, and practicality.
