Chalk
Area rugs starting at: $1,542
Wall-to-wall: $298 / sqyd
Borrowing its look from the classic pinstripe suit and the chalk line of a tailor's mark, Chalk brings linear movement and an enduring classic look to any space.
Tailored Style: The soft, linear stripes of Chalk evoke the precision of a tailor’s chalk line and provide a subtle design detail.
Artisanal Craftsmanship: Chalk is part of the Monasch Collection and is made to order by skilled artisans in the Netherlands.
Insulating Wool: A thick pile of wool yarns creates a cushioned surface that comforts your feet and provides natural insulation for your space.
Dye-Free Wool: Available in natural, undyed hues, Chalk blends beautifully with neutral color palettes and multiple design styles from traditional to modern.
Versatile Use: Whether used as broadloom for wall-to-wall installations, a hallway runner to elongate spaces, or a large area rug, Chalk adds polished style to living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and more.
Other Features
Custom Finishing: Rugs available with custom borders such as Felted Wool, Leather, Linen Wrap, Blind Soft, or a classic serged edge.
Circular Product: Chalk is backed with Niaga® technology, a polyester backing that easily separates from the wool pile for recycling, ensuring both layers can be reused.
Certified New Zealand Wool: Made from high-quality, traceable wool from New Zealand. Each rug comes with a unique QR code that provides information on the source of the materials and how to best dispose of the materials at end of life.
Free Freight: Freight is free on all rug orders. Learn more on our Shipping & Delivery page.

About the Monasch Collection
The Monasch Collection offers bespoke rugs that are more than a beautiful fashion piece for your floor. Only the finest, sustainable wool from New Zealand and Europe is used in the creation of Best Wool's Monasch rugs, which means that your rug is part of a renewable fiber life cycle. The Niaga® backing is a recyclable polyester that can be separated from the wool weave, leaving two distinct materials that can be recycled and put back into the flow for new product creation or, in the case of wool, biodegrade back into nature.
The Four Pillars of the Monasch Collection
HEALTH
Wool is considered a non-allergenic fiber and contributes to a healthier indoor living environment by capturing fine particles like dust and pollen and absorbing VOCs.
DURABILITY
A durable product lasts, which helps reduce waste in our landfills. The Monasch Collection takes durability further by crafting their rugs from renewable and sustainably harvested wool and by making them recyclable with the use of Niaga® backings.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
All Monasch wool rugs are made in the Netherlands by Best Wool and their team of skilled craftsmen. From the shepherds to the thread spinners, the designers to the rug builders, decades of expertise and inspiration are threaded into every Monasch woolen rug.
COMFORT
Nothing beats the ultimate comfort of wool. From plush, thick wool fibers to thinly spun yarns, wool rugs add character, warmth and insulation. Plus, wool is naturally fire-retardant and absorbs sound.
