Sisool is a combination of Sisool fibre and Wool. Originally from Mexico, Sisool is also called “Green Gold” and the fibres, extracted by a process called decortication, were traditionally used for rope making such is their strength.
As one of the most traditional rug materials Wool is also extremely hard wearing with 17th Century rugs surviving to this day! It’s popularity further secured by its softness underfoot.
Sisool at Bordered Rugs which fuses the strength of Sisool with the natural softness of wool creates a textural floor covering that is both practical and luxurious.
