Design: MUM's Original design

MUM's loves Africa rug collection is inspired by African Kassena village houses. Clay houses are decorated by hand with magnificent patterns. Patterns repeat in MUM's rug collection. Inspired by Africa, designed in Finland, handmade in India. A true collaboration from our heart to your heart and home.

Material is original wool, our perhaps most popular and durable material. No mulesing technique in used during shearing process.

Mum's loves Africa is one of our first-ever rug patterns. Should we call it a classic? Perhaps yes, as this pattern is inspired by hand-painted patterns of African clay houses. Mum's was originally born in Africa when Mum's mum Outi traveled to Africa for her Art project. Well anyway. Here we go! First, this pattern was just black and natural white, now also deep forest green mixed with gentle natural white.

MUM's

Mum's was born in South Africa in 2006, when Finnish Outi, an artist, and mum herself, collaborated with 15 African women. They made sculptures for an exhibition in Finland, all weaved by hand, designed by Outi, empowering women who worked from home. All women were mothers, so the project was named MUM's.

Later, it became the name for a sustainable brand "Mum's Good with Goods". Over the years a tiny art project has slightly developed into a sustainable design company, combining designers with sustainable production. Mum's has got production in four developing countries India, South Africa, Cambodia, and Bolivia. Everything is handmade as far as possible, people work from home, and save travel costs to operate. Materials are local either natural or recycled, and each Mum's product is signed by the artisan who made it.

Mum’s carpets are made to order only. We manufacture all our carpets according to your wishes. The size selections available on the website are examples of the most demanded sizes based on the typical Scandinavian living room sizes. We hope they are useful when choosing the correct carpet size for your needs. Unfortunately, we cannot provide return or refund options for the made-to-order products.
