The Chartres labyrinth has been in the floor of Notre-Dame de Chartres Cathedral in France since the early 13th century. Eleven circuits. Four quadrants corresponding to the seasons and the cardinal directions. A single winding path- 261 meters from entrance to center- with no dead ends and no wrong turns. Sacred geometry built by people who believed the proportions of the universe were the language of God. It has been walked continuously for 800 years. This Chartres Labyrinth rug is for the person who’s drawn to this specific design. For the labyrinth walker who values a design with real weight behind it. Who knows the difference between decoration and 800 years of continuous practice. • 100% polyester chenille, plush low-pilling texture • Vibrant, fade-resistant printing • Non-skid polyester backing • Spot clean only 800 years and still walked.
