Aster Beige Modern Machine Made Rug

The pattern is modern and quiet, so the room feels open and settled rather than busy. Put it under a sofa or at the foot of a bed and the whole space looks pulled together. The colours do the quiet work here Beige, cream and taupe blend with ivory, light brown and soft grey, so the rug sits easily with white walls, warm wood, black metal or linen upholstery.

It suits a living room, a bedroom, a home office, a hallway or an entryway, and it works just as well in a small apartment as it does in a large open-plan space. If you like neutral rooms, this one fits straight in. If your room already has strong colour, the soft tones give the eye somewhere to rest. The rug is machine woven from 100% polyester with a low 6 mm pile, which gives an even, smooth surface and a durable finish

The edges are serged and folded with a fringe for a clean, finished look. The low pile means doors and chairs move over it without catching, and a non-slip backing helps it stay in place in a busy home.
