Our story

Where every welcome begins.

A U.S.-based home goods brand dedicated to bringing artisan-crafted, sustainable doormats to doorsteps everywhere.

Theodore Magnus

We believe the first impression of your home starts at the doorstep.

Theodore Magnus was founded on a simple idea: that something as everyday as a doormat can be beautiful, sustainable, and crafted with care. We partner with skilled artisans in Southern India to create doormats that honor traditional craftsmanship while meeting the modern homeowner's desire for design and durability.

The craft

From coconut husk to your doorstep.

It begins with the coconut. Husks are hand-harvested, soaked in water to soften the fibers, then separated, cleaned, and spun into strong, durable coir yarn using traditional hand-spinning methods.

The yarn is then woven or tufted into beautiful designs by skilled artisans — creating a mat that's as durable as it is beautiful, and as sustainable as it is stylish.

How our mats are made

A process refined over generations
01

Harvest

Coconut husks are collected as a natural byproduct — no trees are cut, no land is cleared.

02

Spin

Fibers are soaked, separated, and hand-spun into thick, sturdy coir yarn by skilled artisans.

03

Tuft

Yarn is hand-tufted into designs — each mat shaped with care and attention to detail.

04

Finish

Dyed with eco-friendly dyes, backed with anti-slip vinyl, and rolled for low-impact shipping.

Sustainability

Designed with the planet in mind.

Coir is a naturally renewable byproduct of the coconut industry. Our mats are biodegradable, our dyes are eco-friendly, and our rolled packaging reduces our carbon footprint.

When your mat has finally lived its life, it returns to the earth — no microplastics, no landfill waste. Just natural fiber back to natural soil.

What we stand for

Craftsmanship

Every mat is hand-tufted by experienced artisans using methods passed through generations. We value the human hands behind every product.

Sustainability

From coconut husk to rolled packaging, every decision considers our impact on the planet. Natural materials, eco-friendly processes.

Design

A doormat should be beautiful. We create designs that range from timeless classics to bold statements — always with an eye for style.

The first impression of your home starts at the doorstep. We make sure it's a beautiful one.
