This 3-piece bundle of handwoven outdoor rugs is crafted by refugee artisans in Sub-Saharan Africa using recycled plastic waste and sustainably harvested palm leaves. Each rug is durable, fade-resistant, and fully biodegradable — a Prime Day-ready, high-demand set for eco-conscious, gluten-free households looking to furnish a patio or balcony with ethical, artisanal decor.
