Description
Clean gray grid lines on a crisp white wool ground — the Nissa is a hand-woven flatweave that layers beautifully and works in virtually any room.
A rectangular flatweave rug with a bright white/off-white ground and an even, allover grid pattern formed by thin, slightly textured light gray lines running both horizontally and vertically at regular intervals, creating uniform square cells across the entire surface. The gray lines have a slightly hand-crafted, woven quality — not perfectly machine-sharp, giving the grid a subtle organic feel. The surface is completely flat with no pile, and the woven wool texture is faintly visible within each square. Edges appear cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is crisp, minimal, and quietly graphic — like graph paper rendered in soft natural fibers.

About This Rug
The Nissa White Gray Checkered Wool Rug is a beautifully understated piece that brings quiet sophistication to any room. Hand woven in India from 100% wool, it features a clean grid pattern of soft gray lines crossing over a bright white background — simple, graphic, and endlessly versatile. The flatweave construction keeps it sleek and low-profile at just 0.4 inches thick, making it ideal for layering over other rugs or placing in high-traffic areas where a plush pile would wear down quickly.
The natural wool fibers give it a subtle texture that catches the light gently, adding depth without visual noise. Its neutral white and gray palette works effortlessly with virtually any interior — from Scandinavian minimalist to modern farmhouse to contemporary urban spaces. Whether you're anchoring a dining table, defining a living room seating area, or adding warmth to a bedroom, the Nissa's clean checkered design adapts without competing.
Spot clean with mild detergent and use with a rug pad for best results.
Care & Cleaning
To keep your wool or cotton rugs in top shape, follow these steps:
- Begin by blotting any stains with a dry cotton or white paper towel.
- Use a blunt instrument to carefully remove food or debris.
- Combine a minimal quantity of dish soap with a cup of cold water. Use this solution and a clean sponge to gently clean the stain. Avoid over-saturating the rug. Blot the cleaned area dry with a towel.
- Keep away from excessive heat or agitation as wool and cotton rugs are susceptible to bleeding and staining.
- For the best results, we advise a yearly professional cleaning.
