Description

It's the washed red outline that gives this cream and red vintage distressed rug its gentle graphic kick. Elder draws a stepped lozenge across the field, then breaks it up with a heavily distressed finish, so the red reads softly, like faded paint on an old barn door. A low, striated high-low pile adds tactile texture, and the durable build suits kitchens, hallways and living rooms.

Red on cream feels warm and a little rustic, lovely with natural wood and warm metals. Pair it with cream, tan or olive sofas, pine or mid-oak, copper and walls in warm white, sage or soft terracotta. Choose 160 x 230 cm for a living room, 66 x 100 cm beside the range cooker, or the 66 x 200 cm runner in the hall.

Care

Vacuum regularly on a low setting; blot spills straight away and spot clean with mild detergent; professional clean when needed.

Tip: use an anti-slip underlay on hard floors. It keeps the rug flat and makes vacuuming easier.

Good to know

Folklore questions

Are Folklore rugs antique?

No. Folklore rugs are new rugs with a vintage look. The Persian-style, Oushak-style, Kazak-style and kilim-style designs are given a heavily washed, distressed finish and a low, striated high-low pile, so they look softly aged from the day they arrive, without the price or fragility of an antique.

What size rug or runner do I need?

For most living rooms, 160 x 230 cm sits under the front legs of a sofa and chairs, and 200 x 290 cm suits larger or open-plan spaces. Choose 120 x 170 cm for a bedroom, 66 x 100 cm for a doorway, and the 66 x 200 cm runner for a hallway.

How do I clean a Folklore rug?

Vacuum regularly on a low setting, working with the direction of the pile. Blot spills promptly with a clean, damp cloth rather than rubbing, then let the area dry naturally. Turning the rug occasionally helps it wear evenly, and a professional rug cleaner is best for deeper cleaning.

Can I use a Folklore rug on hard floors or underfloor heating?

Folklore rugs look lovely on wood, stone and tiles. On hard floors, we recommend a rug underlay to help keep the rug in place and add cushioning. If you have underfloor heating, choose an underlay designed for it and check your heating system's guidance on floor coverings.

How do delivery and returns work?

Delivery is free to all UK mainland addresses. If your rug does not suit your space, you can return it within 30 days with postage paid, so you can see the washed colours in your own light before you commit.
