In Sampler, paired rectangles come together, introducing a distinctive weave as they overlap.

This dynamic design is inspired by samplers that were used to learn and demonstrate darning: a sewing technique for repairing holes or worn areas in fabric by replicating the structure of the original material.

Dating back to at least the 18th century, these samplers typically covered small pieces of cloth in darning "blocks" of various weave structures in a variety of colors—especially blue, green, red, and yellow yarns—to make intricacies visible and show the weaver's skill.

TO CLEAN: Simply wipe with soap, water, and a soft sponge or cloth. Scrub stubborn stains with a soft bristle-brush and a bleach-based cleanser.

Made in the USA. Sampler © 2022.

  • Rectangle: 19"W x 14"D x 0.07"H, 0.32 lbs
  • Runner: 72"W x 14"D x 0.07"H, 1.22 lbs

Chilewich

Sandy Chilewich started the company because nothing on the market behaved the way she wanted a floor covering to behave. The answer was to extrude yarn and weave it on looms in the company's own mill in Georgia, and the result is a material that looks like textile and performs like something much tougher.

The yarn does not absorb, which is the whole proposition. A floor mat can live inside a door through a wet winter. A table mat can take a spilled glass of red and be rinsed under a tap. Nothing stains because nothing soaks in. The weaves do the aesthetic work: basketweave, mini-basketweave, bamboo, shag, in colourways that read as texture rather than pattern from across a room.

This is why the material turns up in restaurants, hotels and offices as often as in houses. It takes traffic that would flatten a wool rug, and it keeps looking deliberate rather than hard-wearing. In a home it earns its place in exactly the spots where other textiles fail: entryways, kitchens, under a dining table, a covered porch.

Care is a damp cloth, a vacuum, or a hose outside. Nothing goes in a washing machine or a tumble dryer, and nothing needs to. Put an anti-slip underlay beneath anything on a hard floor. The questions below cover cleaning, outdoor use and cutting to fit.
