Description
A warm brown and cream checkerboard wool rug that's equal parts bold and versatile — hand-tufted with a plush medium pile that feels as good as it looks.
A rectangular area rug featuring an allover checkerboard pattern of alternating warm caramel brown and soft cream squares of equal size, arranged in a classic grid across the entire surface. The squares have slightly soft, hand-crafted edges rather than perfectly sharp machine-cut lines, giving the pattern a tactile, artisanal quality. The pile is medium height with a plush, velvety wool texture visible across both color fields — the brown squares appear slightly deeper in tone due to pile shadow. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The overall impression is bold, graphic, and warm — a two-tone geometric rug with an unmistakably handmade character.

- Medium pile at 0.39" — comfortable underfoot

About This Rug
The Timin area rug from the Brook Collection brings a fresh, modern twist to a classic checkerboard pattern. Alternating squares of warm caramel brown and soft cream create a bold yet grounded look that works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, and entryways alike. Hand-tufted from plush wool in India, this rug has a satisfying medium pile at 0.39 inches — soft underfoot without being overly shaggy.
The neutral earth-tone palette makes it incredibly versatile: it pairs naturally with warm wood tones, white walls, and natural linen furniture, but also holds its own against bolder accent colors. The canvas backing adds stability, and the 0.59-inch total thickness gives it a substantial, quality feel. Whether you're going for a minimalist modern look or a cozy farmhouse vibe, the Timin's clean geometric pattern and warm neutral tones make it an effortless anchor for any room.
Spot clean with mild detergent to keep it looking its best, and pair with a rug pad for added grip and longevity.
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.
