Overdale Slate Traditional Washable Rug

A matching border frames the whole rug and holds the pattern together. The gold lines feel like lamplight on a gray stone floor. The bone tones keep the look light, so the rug reads rich and quiet at the same time.

Step back and the medallion pulls your eye to the center of the room, which makes the space feel settled and finished. It works in almost every room of the house In the living room, lay it under a coffee table so the medallion shows in the open space between your seats. In the bedroom, put it at the foot of the bed for a soft place to stand when you get up.

In the dining room, slide it under the table and chairs so the border sits out past the chair legs. By the front door it welcomes people in, and the slate gray ground handles the traffic of an entryway well. Down a long hallway it draws a warm path from one end to the other.

In a home office it sits under a desk and chair and softens the sound of the room. In a kids' room it gives a soft floor for play. Because it works indoors and outdoors, you can also use it on a covered porch, a sunroom or a screened deck. Choosing a size is simple once you picture the space

A long narrow runner suits a hallway, a galley kitchen, a spot beside a bed or the strip of floor in front of a sink. It follows the walk of the room and keeps the pattern moving in one direction. A larger rectangle is the one for open floor.

Set it so the front legs of your sofa and chairs rest on it and the seating area feels tied together. Under a dining set, pick a rectangle big enough that chairs stay on the rug when you pull them out. A smaller rectangle is right by a door, at a bedside or in front of a kitchen counter.

Measure your floor first and then choose from the sizes listed, so the rug lands the way you planned. The design is printed with a high-quality digital print That is why the fine lines in the medallion and the small details in the border stay sharp instead of turning into a blur. The slate gray stays deep, the gold stays warm and the bone stays clean, so the rug looks the same across the whole floor with no patchy spots.

The pile is 6mm, about a quarter of an inch, so the surface is smooth and flat. You see the pattern clearly and furniture sits level on top of it. Cleaning is easy, and that is what makes a light-toned rug like this one work in real life It is machine washable, so when it needs a full refresh you can wash it and put it back down.

Fresh spills are simple too. Wipe the spot or spot clean it and get on with your day. The rug does not shed and does not fuzz.

It leaves no dust and no loose fibres on the floor around it, so your clean floor stays clean and your vacuum stays empty. That matters most in a dining room, an entryway and anywhere a sippy cup or a muddy paw lands. Living with Overdale is easy day to day The non-slip backing helps the rug stay put, so it does not slide when you walk across it or push a chair back.

The low 6mm pile is thin enough for a door to swing over it, which is why it suits entryways, bathroom doorways, kitchens and other busy rooms. The surface is soft, so bare feet and small hands are happy on it. The edge is finished with a durable overlock, a clean bound edge with no fringe to catch a toe or a vacuum head.

It is friendly to pets and children, which means you get a traditional style floor you can actually live on.
