Alum Taupe Scandinavian Machine Made Rug

Short fringe at each end adds a gentle, handmade touch. Put it under a sofa or at the foot of a bed and the whole space feels quieter and more finished. The colours are easy to live with Taupe, ivory, grey and beige sit together in a warm neutral blend that works with white walls, wood furniture and black metal alike.

Because there is no busy pattern to fight with, it lets your cushions, art and plants do the talking. Use it in a living room, a bedroom, a hallway or a home office, or layer a smaller size by a doorway or beside a reading chair. Alum is machine woven, so the weave stays even and tidy from edge to edge The low 4 mm pile lies flat, so doors swing clear and chairs slide back without catching.

Serged edges hold the sides neatly. A non-slip backing helps the rug stay where you put it, which matters in a home with kids, guests and daily foot traffic.
