Have you ever thought of bringing Nature right into your house, grass and cactus to be more specific? Installing Sisal rugs and Seagrass rugs for one does just that. While the sisal rug is made from a cactus exclusive to Africa and Brazil, the seagrass rug is composed of natural seagrass. These rugs like all other plant fibers offer durability and hardiness.
The Sisal is a type of cactus found in dry climates like deserts. The plant has been cultivated for ages for its internal, tensile fibers used for rope and yarn making. The gristly stems of the cactus are dried and treated to give auburn colored strips. These strips are then woven to give you the beautiful Sisal rug that adorns your living room.
Many Facets Of Sisal
The Sisal rug wins over synthetic rugs mainly because of their natural stain resistance and inability to build up static electricity. Durability is its forte with no signs of constricting or erosion so common in wall-to-wall carpeting.
The Sisal rug is even better than natural fiber rugs for their versatility and is ideal for high traffic areas. Moreover, you could intermix it with other fibers like seagrass/wool to get the benefit of both the fibers.
The Sisal rug can be easily customized for its edges can be decorated with any fabric. It comes with a thick, canvas border in a basic color where you can easily seam the material you covet.
Additionally the Sisal rug absorbs excessive moisture in your house, releasing it on drier days, thereby controlling slight changes of temperature. However, it may develop water stains if kept in high humidity areas like the kitchen or bathroom.
Give the touch of the rustic glamour and authenticity to your house with the Sisal rug to make it stand out.
