Description
Our Delmenne runner rug pairs a cream woven field with a plain beige border that runs around all four sides. Up close, the surface is a bouclé weave of small, tight loops, and they give the rug a gentle, nubbly texture that catches the light, so a quiet neutral still looks rich and layered. The fibre is a blend of 49% sisal, 41% wool and 10% polyester, which keeps the firm, natural character of sisal, while the looped construction makes it a touch softer underfoot. It comes in one size, a 67 by 200cm runner.
The maker intended this rug for the parts of a home that see the most footfall: a hallway with constant comings and goings, a kitchen where you stand to cook, or a living room with a well worn path between doorway and sofa. At 67 by 200cm it lays a long, narrow strip of texture through a hall or along a walkway, protecting the floor where people actually walk. The looped weave is resilient, so it keeps its look under daily traffic, and the cream and beige pairing sits comfortably beside warm wood, pale tiles or painted floorboards. It suits anyone who wants a natural, textured look without committing to a bold colour.
The runner is 1cm thick with a 1.2cm pile, so before you lay it in a hallway, check the gap under any door that has to swing over it. Its everyday care is simple: vacuum it regularly to keep the loops looking their best, and keep it dry, which matters most in a kitchen. Before you order, measure the length of your hallway and allow a little bare floor at each end, so the border frames the space neatly. On a smooth floor such as wood or tile, an underlay helps keep the runner in place.

Frequently Asked
Is the Delmenne runner comfortable to walk on barefoot?
Sisal makes up nearly half the blend, so the surface has a firm, natural texture rather than a plush one, but the looped weave softens it slightly compared with a flat sisal weave.
What should I do if I spill something on the runner?
For a serious spill or stain, the maker recommends professional cleaning. This runner is not machine washable, so please do not soak it or put it in a washing machine.
How should I vacuum a looped sisal runner?
The maker advises vacuuming in one direction rather than back and forth, using the standard floor tool on your vacuum cleaner, so the looped surface keeps its best appearance.
Can I fold the runner to store it or move house?
Always roll it and never fold it when you store it or move it to another room or house. That is the maker's own care advice for this rug.
