Seagrass
A favorite for contemporary rooms, seagrass is also antibacterial. It resists staining and spots can be moistened, leaving no marks.

Sisal
Chunky, rustic sisal comes in an array of hues, but toddler and pet parents beware: There’s no spot-cleaning sisal. If spills are a regular occurrence, it requires professional cleaning of the whole carpet.

Wool
Durable, soft and naturally soil-resistant, wool will retain its soft luster over time.
