In-Depth Review
Traditional Ghanaian Weaving for Modern Homes
The Baba Tree rug collection brings the vibrant colors of Bolgatanga, Ghana, into your living space. Each rug is hand-woven by master weavers using locally harvested elephant grass and sisal fibers combined with organic cotton. For shoppers moving toward a plant-based lifestyle, this rug offers a complete departure from petroleum-based synthetic fibers like polyester or nylon which shed microplastics into the home environment.
Why Sisal and Cotton?
Sisal is an incredibly hardy fiber extracted from the Agave plant, making it naturally vegan and extremely durable for high-traffic areas. When blended with organic cotton, it creates a texture that is both sturdy and comfortable underfoot. The dyes used are non-toxic and low-impact, ensuring that the product remains safe for pets and children who spend time playing on the floor.
- 100% Biodegradable materials
- No animal-derived glues or wool
- Direct-from-artisan sourcing
