The Colorado rug is a machine-made Turkish rug that boasts a natural, jute-like appearance while also offering superior durability and ease of maintenance. Unlike traditional jute rugs, the Colorado rug is designed to be vacuumed easily and cleaned without difficulty, minimizing shedding and maintaining a fresh, polished look. Additionally, this rug is resistant to yellowing when exposed to moisture, making it a great choice for high-traffic or outdoor areas. If you're looking for a rug that brings the natural aesthetic of jute with less maintenance, the Colorado rug is an ideal option.
The reason Colorado Beige Geometric Indoor Outdoor has stayed in our catalogue for several seasons is straightforward: it sells consistently and comes back rarely.
Living with it
Designed for patios, decks, and verandas. Leave it out year-round in most parts of Australia and it will hold its colour through the worst of the sun. Vacuum, blot, and live with it. That is genuinely the entire maintenance instruction for a rug like this. Build the room around it. It will hold the centre and stay quiet while the rest of the space changes around it.
On the design
Worth a moment on the look of it. Beige has come a long way from the 1990s — modern beige rugs carry a warm, taupe-leaning tone that reads sophisticated rather than dated. The motif is restrained enough to sit under almost any furniture without competing. From above, the surface has a quiet visual rhythm — close up, the construction details start to show.
What's under the surface
Made in Turkey on power looms. We've worked with Turkish mills for decades — the country's heritage in rugs runs deep, and the power-loom programmes are some of the most consistent in the world. Polypropylene is the fibre we end up recommending in roughly four out of five conversations with new customers. It is honest, hard-wearing, and forgiving. The pile is 10mm, which is what we'd call a true everyday pile — the kind of weight you want under a coffee table or a dining setting. Construction-wise, this is built to look the same six months in as the day it arrived.
Picking the right size
If this is going under a dining table, measure the table and add at least 60cm on each side so the chairs stay on the rug when pulled out. The Rug Size Guide walks through the details.
Order Colorado Beige Geometric Indoor Outdoor if the room is asking for a quiet, well-made foundation rather than a feature piece.
Common questions
Is the back of the rug latex-coated?
The backing is a standard textile finish — it sits flat on the floor and won't mark timber boards. For hard floors, we'd still recommend a rug pad to keep it from sliding.
Can I steam clean this rug?
Yes, but a hose is usually faster and just as effective.
Can I put a rug pad underneath?
Yes, and we'd recommend it on hard floors. A pad keeps the rug from slipping, adds a little extra softness underfoot, and helps the pile wear evenly over time.
Will it sit flat once unrolled?
Almost always within 24–48 hours. If you see any waves from the rolled packaging, lay the rug pile-up in the room and let it relax overnight — gravity does the rest. For stubborn corners, rolling the rug briefly in the opposite direction usually does it.
Does this rug ship rolled or folded?
Rolled. We ship every rug in our range rolled and wrapped — folding can leave a crease in the pile that takes a few weeks to settle out, so we avoid it.
