Sneak Peek: New Rugs by Amy Butler for Chandra

Available this month for the first time, a collection of handcrafted rugs designed by Amy Butler, queen of "midwest modern" style. There are 19 designs in the line...

...ranging from large freeform designs to tighter patterns, most with a nod to a floral motif. Amy traveled to India to work with Chandra on the rugs which are made from New Zealand Wool and were produced using "using no harsh chemical washes, the industries safest chrome dyes and natural latex adhesive".

Enjoy the sneak peek above and keep an eye out at Amy Butler for news on the collection's availability in the coming weeks.

I am a Designer at the firm called Lucy and Company and the moment these rugs debuted at market in High Point we were all over them. They are very different than anything out there and absolutely beautiful in person. And you certainly can't beat the price point! I will have to submit some photos once we get rooms with these rugs complete--they are just stunning! It's a shame that she doesn't have matching fabrics for all of the rugs, but majority of the Midwest Modern collection (I think it's that one) pairs well with them.
Amy always does a great job, so glad she teamed up with a reputable company like Chandra!

I can't believe my luck!
I just decorated my living room and used 2 great AB fabrics in it, I was debating what to do for a rug and wishing she made some!
Yay!

I love Chandra rugs, great quality at prices I can actually afford.
Celesteinoz - check out these rugs . I got two from this site and I believe they have the whole collection and would probably be able to ship to you. The hardest part is definitely having to choose. Amy Butler has serious talent!

I agree, which one to choose? I would choose a turquoise tone one. I discovered Amy Butler's website about 6 months ago and love the fabrics too. Will watch out for the rugs. Wonder if they will deliver to Croatia?

I have been searching for a pretty rug like this for my home for some months now. I love these rugs! Does anyone know where I might be able to buy them in Toronto, Canada?

I'm totally on the love boat for them!

Am I the only one who is over the over-scaled floral thing? Interesting colors though.

The rugs are pretty, but...me too, jacksonlalonde. And I'm a little burned out on these particular designs. I feel like I see them everywhere.
