Tamarisk Black Modern Machine Made Rug

The zigzag moves across the floor and gives a plain room shape and direction. Set it under a sofa, beside a bed, or in a hallway and the space instantly looks finished. Black, light grey and white are the easiest colours to live with They sit happily with wood floors, white walls, linen sofas and metal frames.

Warm woods look warmer next to it. Bright cushions and green plants stand out against it. It works in a living room, a bedroom, a home office, a hallway or just inside the front door, and the pale grey reverse keeps the whole piece feeling light rather than heavy. Tamarisk is machine woven on a power loom, so the pattern stays even and the lines stay straight across the whole rug

It is a flatwoven piece with serged edges that hold their shape. That makes it a good fit for a busy home, where chairs get pushed back, doors swing open and people walk through all day. A quick sweep or vacuum keeps it looking sharp.
