Product information

Ruis means Rye in English. Part of "Fields and Dreams"-collection of hgh qualiy and durable recycled cotton rugs designed by Mum's in Finland. Ethical production, handmade of recycled cotton. May be washed in water.

As a child we used to play in the fields. Field was our ocean, sea of rye, wawing in the wind, we were the boats. The field is innocent like childhood. Still I love to go out to fields, walk, smell, be part of it, feel the rye, alone, never grow up.

In Finland grandmothers used to weave rugs using old used fabrics and clothes. Those rugs are traditionally very durable. Mum's recycled cotton rugs are high quality and ightly weaved, 100% handmade respecting our grandmothers heritage, as their skills are dissappearing with time. This rug can be made custom to any size you wish. For custom sizes please contact us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

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.
