Choosing black rugs

Black and charcoal rugs anchor a room and give pale floors and furniture definition. They are practical for hiding dirt but can show light-coloured dust, lint and pet hair. Monochrome black and white designs suit modern and Scandi schemes, while charcoal is softer and easier to pair with warm woods.

Rugs in the dining room

Under a dining table, the rug should extend at least 60 cm beyond the table edge on every side so chairs stay on the rug when pulled out. Low pile and flatweave rugs are easiest for chairs to slide over and simplest to clean under a table. Avoid deep shaggy piles where crumbs fall.

Care and cleaning

The care instructions given by the makers of these rugs include: "Vacuum with suction only (no beater bar)" (2 designs); "Vacuum regularly and spot clean gently as needed" (1 design); "Avoid high-moisture areas and clean using a professional service" (1 design). Vacuum regularly, ideally with a suction-only head or with the beater bar raised for deeper piles, and blot spills straight away from the outside in rather than rubbing. Always follow the care label on the product page, and test any cleaner on a hidden corner first. It is usually lighter and more affordable than wool and does not shed in the same way, but the pile can flatten in heavy traffic over time.
