As a runner, Colorful Checkered is a checkered rug drawn out into a long path of color. A narrow column of the charcoal-black grid carries its mismatched squares, mustard, orange, green, lavender, soft blue, red, wine, terracotta, and cream, in a rhythm that leads the eye from one end to the other. It can be finished with or without ivory fringe. A runner solves the spaces a wider rug cannot: a corridor, a galley kitchen, the run alongside a bed or a long entry where every step lands on a different bright block. Designed in New York and hand-knotted in Bhadohi, India, it is made from 100% New Zealand wool with a fine 0.5 inch pile that keeps the squares crisp and stands up to daily foot traffic. Made to order in any length and any color, with 55 colors curated for online customization and more than 3,000 available through the studio. Each rug is ready in 5 to 6 weeks and ships free worldwide, duties included.

Construction: Hand-knotted

Material: 100% New Zealand wool

Dimensions: Standard sizes available online, with fully custom sizes on request

Pile Height: 0.5"

Origin: Handmade in Bhadohi, India — a region renowned for fine carpet weaving

New Zealand wool is naturally stain-resistant and springs back underfoot — footprints and furniture marks lift rather than settling in. It also takes dye deeply, which is what gives the colors their depth. Some initial shedding is normal and settles within the first few weeks. Why New Zealand wool →

Care: Shedding is normal and will lessen with use. Vacuum regularly on a high-pile setting. Clip loose ends with scissors (do not pull). Rotate periodically for even wear. Blot spills immediately with a clean, white cloth (do not rub). Professional cleaning recommended.

Our Picks for You

Choosing a Checkered Runner Rug for a Hallway

A checkered runner rug earns its place in the narrow rooms of a home, the corridors, kitchens, and entries that a standard rug never reaches. The long format of Colorful Checkered turns that constraint into an advantage: the repeating grid sets a steady rhythm down the length of the hall, while the mismatched squares give each step its own jolt of color, so a passage that would otherwise be overlooked becomes something to walk through with pleasure.

For the best fit, leave a few inches of floor on either side of the runner so the pattern sits framed rather than wall to wall, and choose a length that stops short of the room's end rather than crowding the threshold. Hand-knotting keeps the long line of squares true, each block tied by hand in Bhadohi at a durable half-inch pile that holds up to constant foot traffic.
