Dining Room Rugs
Dining room rugs require a more structured approach. This collection focuses on flatweave and low-profile designs that allow chairs to move easily while maintaining durability in high-use areas.
Pile height is the deciding factor. A low or flat construction lets chairs slide rather than catch, and a dense surface handles the crumbs and spills a dining space attracts. Fibres that resist soiling and clean easily, wool and jute among them, hold up better here than lustrous or long-pile alternatives.
Size the rug so chairs stay on it when pulled out, which usually means allowing around 60cm beyond the table on every side. Three by four metre formats suit most dining settings.
