Choosing traditional and vintage-style rugs

Traditional and vintage-style rugs draw on Persian, Oriental and classic European designs, with medallions, borders and faded colourways. Distressed and overdyed looks blend well with modern furniture as well as period homes. The intricate patterns are very good at hiding spills and wear.

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)" (5 designs); "Spot clean only" (3 designs); "Spot clean or vacuum regularly" (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.
