Combe Grey Modern Machine Made Rug

Smooth flat channels sit against heathered bars, so the floor looks layered and considered without shouting. Put a sofa on it and the whole seating area suddenly feels pulled together. The colours are easy to live with Grey and charcoal give the design its shape, while light grey, silver and ivory keep it bright.

It sits happily with white walls, warm wood, black metal and pale linen. Use it under a coffee table in the living room, at the foot of the bed, along a hallway or by the front door where a bit of pattern hides everyday footprints. It is machine woven on a power loom, so the pattern stays even and the surface holds its shape through daily use The low 8 mm pile clears most doors and sits flat under chair legs.

Edges are finished with fringe, serging and folding for a neat line all the way round. A non-slip backing keeps it steady on the floor, which matters in a busy home with kids, guests and quick footsteps.
