The Tessaro custom stitched cowhide rug transforms small sections of natural hair-on hide into a refined basket-weave pattern. Each 2" × 4" rectangle is paired to form a four-inch square module, then alternated horizontally and vertically across the field.

Warm variations of caramel, champagne, honey, and sand give the precise geometry a natural sense of movement. Fine stitching and changing hair direction further define the individual pieces, creating a richly textured surface that reveals new detail as the light shifts.

The Story Behind Tessaro

Tessaro is a name created for the collection, chosen for its echo of tessera—the small individual pieces traditionally assembled to form a mosaic.

In the same way, Tessaro builds a complex surface from one simple rectangular form. Each pair turns in relation to the next, creating the rhythm and visual movement of a woven basket. The result is orderly without feeling rigid: a balance of disciplined geometry, natural material, and subtle tonal variation.

Made for Your Space

Each Tessaro rug is handmade to order in Brazil and adapted to the dimensions selected for your space. The 2" × 4" scale of the individual cowhide pieces remains consistent, allowing the basket-weave pattern to retain its detail and proportion in both standard and custom sizes.

The warm neutral palette works beautifully in modern, transitional, organic, and traditionally designed interiors. Its smaller-scale pattern provides visual interest without overpowering the surrounding room.

Because genuine cowhide is a natural material, every finished rug will have its own variations in color, markings, hair direction, and sheen. These differences are part of the design and ensure that no two Tessaro rugs are exactly alike.

A Note About the Images

The full-size rug image is a digital visualization created from the Tessaro sample to illustrate the design at approximately 8' × 10'. The finished made-to-order rug will preserve the scale and alternating basket-weave pattern shown, while individual hide tones, markings, placement, hair direction, and stitching will naturally vary.

The sample and close-up photographs provide the closest reference for Tessaro’s natural color, texture, and construction.

Choose your preferred standard size and complete your purchase online. Within one to two business days, a Furug team member will contact you to confirm the colorway, finishing border and final specifications.

Once the design is approved, it is sent to our artisan workshop in Brazil, where each piece of cowhide is individually selected, cut, arranged and stitched. Production begins only after the final specifications have been approved.

Our stitched rug collection may be commissioned in the colorway shown or personalized using natural cowhide and any of our 30 dyed colors. Metallic finishes, embossed hides and other specialty materials are also available by custom quote.

Custom dimensions, runners and wall installations are available. For an entirely original pattern, Furug can develop the initial concept, prepare a digital mock-up and refine the design and colorway with you before production.

Each rug is handcrafted from individually cut pieces of genuine cowhide and finished with a coordinating 1- to 2-inch perimeter border for a tailored, polished appearance.

Unlike unbacked stitched rugs, Furug rugs are finished with protective felt and discreet rubber grip dots. The backing protects the underlying stitching, provides a more substantial finish and helps reduce movement without requiring a separate rug pad on most flooring surfaces.

Natural variation in tone, markings and hair direction is expected and makes every finished rug one of a kind.

Production generally requires approximately 6–8 weeks following approval of the final colorway and specifications. Transit time is additional, and delivery details will be provided when the completed rug is ready to ship.

Because each rug is produced specifically for its purchaser, made-to-order and custom rugs are final sale and cannot be canceled once production has begun. Please contact Furug before ordering if you would like assistance with color, sizing or placement.
