Zero Waste Rug

These beautiful rugs are handwoven just outside Jaipur using fabric offcuts from the Nila studio - a thoughtful zero-waste approach that turns remnants into something lasting and full of life. Naturally dyed indigo scraps create layered shades of blue that shift from rug to rug, making each one entirely unique.

They are woven on traditional pit-looms by master weaver Kallu Ji, who learned this zero-waste technique from his father. At home in Govindgarh, weaving is a family affair: his wife Munni Banno and their sons Idrish and Aabid help with the weaving and careful finishing of each piece.

Rooted in tradition yet quietly contemporary, these rugs celebrate skill passed down through generations, mindful making and the beauty of using what already exists. No two are ever the same, just like the hands and histories that bring them to life.

A grounding piece for your home, made with intention.

Nila House was founded in 2019 by Carole Bamford. She was working in India and realised that there were craft communities who were struggling because of a lack of tools and lack of access to people who wanted to buy their products. The Nila House project was the result.

Many of their items are dyed with indigo (Nila means blue in Sanskrit), so when all of their work is viewed en masse the effect is incredibly soothing.
