Description
Delmenne is a light beige rug with a mocha border. The surface is a boucle weave, a neat grid of small, rounded loops in pale beige with darker tan threads between them, so the plain field never looks flat. A soft brown border frames all four sides. The fibre blend is 49% sisal, 41% wool and 10% polyester: the sisal makes it tough and hardwearing, and the wool in the loops adds a touch of softness underfoot while springing back well. We offer it in 80 by 150cm, 120 by 170cm, 160 by 230cm and 200 by 290cm.
The maker asks that the rug be kept dry, so it belongs indoors, in a living room, a bedroom, a dining room or a study. The 80 by 150cm size sits beside a bed or in front of an armchair, and the 120 by 170cm suits a smaller living room. The 160 by 230cm works well under a coffee table with the front legs of the sofa resting on it, and the 200 by 290cm suits a dining table in a larger room. Because the texture does the work, the rug brings warmth and interest without adding pattern, and the mocha border sits easily with wooden floors and natural tones.
The rug is 1cm thick, so if it will lie in the path of a door, check that the door can swing over it. For everyday care, vacuum regularly with a standard floor tool, working in one direction rather than back and forth. Keep it dry, and for a serious spill or stain the maker recommends professional cleaning. Roll it when you store or move it, and never fold it. Before you order, measure your space and mark the outline on the floor with masking tape; on a smooth floor such as wood or tile, an underlay helps keep the rug in place.

Frequently Asked
Does the sisal make this rug scratchy underfoot?
It has a firmer, more textured feel than an all-wool rug, as sisal is 49% of the blend, though the wool in each loop softens it and keeps it comfortable for bare feet.
Can I use this rug in a bathroom?
No, we would keep it out of bathrooms, wet rooms and anywhere water is likely to splash, because the maker asks that the rug be kept dry.
Should I choose 160 by 230cm or 200 by 290cm for my living room?
Measure your seating area first. If the sofa and chairs can rest their front legs on the 160 by 230cm, it will pull the room together; if you want all the furniture fully on the rug, choose the 200 by 290cm.
Is there any pattern in the weave?
No, the field is a plain light beige and all the interest comes from the even grid of small loops, with the mocha border as the only contrast in colour.
Will this rug work in a hallway?
This rug is not offered as a runner, but the 80 by 150cm can suit a wider hallway, provided it stays dry and wet shoes come off before they reach it.
