Description
This traditional runner rug sets a cream centre inside a deep black border, drawn in the Aubusson style with two black oval medallions along its length, each filled with soft pink flowers. Scrolling floral detail runs around the cream field and through the border, so the pattern carries from one end to the other. The pile is pure wool, 100% throughout, kept low so the flowers stay crisp. It is hand tufted and comes in one size, a 67 by 210cm runner.
A runner of this size suits the long, narrow parts of a home: a hallway, a landing, or the length of floor beside a bed. At 67cm wide it leaves floor showing on both sides of most hallways, and at 210cm long it covers the stretch you walk most often, from the front door towards the stairs. Wool earns its place in a busy spot like this, since the maker describes the rug as hardwearing, and it feels cosy underfoot on a cold morning. The cream centre brings light to a darker corridor, and the black border gives the runner a clear outline against wooden or tiled floors.
The runner is hand tufted in 100% wool, with a 1cm pile and an overall thickness of 1.5cm. That slim profile matters near doors: check the gap beneath any door that will swing over the runner, since it needs at least 1.5cm to clear. For everyday care, spot clean marks rather than soaking the rug, and vacuum on a low suction setting without the beater bar. On a smooth floor such as wood, tile or laminate, an underlay helps keep a rug in place. Finally, measure the length of your hallway or landing first, so the runner sits with an even margin of floor at each end.

Frequently Asked
Is it normal for a new wool runner to shed?
Yes. The maker notes that shedding is a natural property of a new rug, so a little loose fluff at first is nothing to worry about.
What should I do if a strand of yarn comes loose?
Never pull it. Snip the loose strand level with the surrounding pile using a pair of scissors, which is how the maker advises handling it.
Can I use this runner in a bathroom or by a back door?
We would keep it away from bathrooms and any damp or wet floor, as the maker advises against using it on a damp surface. It is an indoor runner for dry rooms.
Can I scrub a stubborn mark out of the wool?
Please avoid it. The maker advises against brushing or scrubbing this rug, so treat a mark gently with spot cleaning rather than rubbing hard at the pile.
Can I fold the runner to store it or move it?
No. The maker advises never folding this rug, so keep it flat or loosely rolled rather than creased when you need to move or store it.
