Vesper Cream Transitional Machine Made Rug

Step closer and the quiet detail comes through. The result is a floor that feels settled and warm, the kind of backdrop that lets a sofa, a low table and a good lamp do the talking. The colours are easy to live with Cream leads, with beige, ivory and pale taupe woven through in soft tones.

That mix works with white walls, warm wood, black metal and greenery, and it forgives a room that already has a lot going on. Use it under a coffee table in the living room, at the foot of the bed, in a dining room, along a hallway or by the front door. Because the pattern has no strong direction, it sits well in open plans and in small rooms alike. Vesper is machine woven on a power loom, which gives an even surface and a clean, consistent finish from edge to edge

The 8 mm pile keeps the profile low, so chairs slide and doors clear. Edges are finished with serging, fringe and folded detailing depending on the piece. A non-slip backing helps it stay put in a home with kids, pets and daily traffic.

Vacuum as part of your normal routine and it keeps looking tidy.
