Description
A bold green and cream checkerboard shag rug with a thick, plush pile — graphic enough to anchor a room, soft enough to sink your toes into.
A rectangular shag area rug with an allover checkerboard pattern of alternating muted sage-teal green and warm cream squares of equal size, arranged in a classic grid across the entire surface. The pile is thick and plush — approximately 1.18 inches — giving each square a slightly raised, textured appearance with soft edges where the two colors meet. The cream squares appear slightly ivory-warm, while the green squares have a dusty, muted teal quality rather than a bright or saturated green. The rug has clean bound edges with no fringe or tassels. Overall impression: a bold, graphic two-tone shag with a retro-modern feel and a soft, cloud-like texture.
- Bold green and cream checkerboard pattern — a true room statement
- Thick 1.18" shag pile, 2.44" total thickness — genuinely plush underfoot
- Machine woven in Turkey from polypropylene and polyester blend
- Muted sage-teal green tone pairs easily with modern and retro decor
- Spot clean with mild detergent for easy maintenance
- No backing — recommend pairing with a rug pad for grip
