Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does the emerald color fade or vary between mats?
Since the color comes from dyed grass fibers, there can be slight natural variation between mats, similar to any handwoven textile. It shouldn't fade noticeably under normal indoor use.
2. Is this mat suitable for a pooja room or a living room specifically?
It works well in either space. The deep green tone suits both a living room floor and a pooja or meditation corner, depending on your preference.
3. How is this different from the Badami color option?
Both are handwoven from the same madurkathi grass and available in the same sizes. The main difference is the color palette: emerald green with rust and cream stripes versus a beige base with mustard stripes.
4. Can I place furniture on top of this mat?
Light furniture like a low table or stool can rest on it occasionally, but it isn't meant to bear heavy furniture weight for long periods, since this can flatten the natural grass weave.
5. Does the mat come pre-folded, or do I fold it myself after delivery?
It's shipped folded along its stitched panel lines for easier packing, and unfolds flat once you lay it out. You can refold it the same way for storage.
