Two floral medallions sit along the centre of the blue field, and the pattern has a textured look that gives the flowers a gentle depth. The pile is low and the fibre is pure wool, so it feels soft and warm underfoot without the bulk of a deep rug, and the low pile lets the detail of the design read clearly. It is hand tufted, and the maker describes it as long lasting. It comes in one size, a 67 by 210cm runner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA runner of this length suits a hallway or a landing, where it gives a run of bare boards or tiles a soft, warm path from one end to the other. It works as well beside a bed, so the first step of the morning lands on wool rather than a cold floor, or along the foot of a bed. The maker intends the range for rooms through the home, and the blue with cream and pink sits happily in a period house, a cottage or a quieter modern scheme where you want a touch of pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pile is 1cm deep and the runner is 1.5cm thick in all, a modest height for a busy hallway, though it is worth checking the gap beneath any door that opens across it before you order. For care, the maker asks for spot cleaning only, so treat a mark where it lands rather than lifting the whole runner for a wash. Measure your hallway or landing first and allow a strip of floor to show along each side and at each end, which frames the cream border neatly. On a smooth floor such as wood or tile, an underlay helps keep the runner in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKonvarne\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e67 x 210cm Runner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Wool\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHand tufted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePile Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpot clean only; Vacuum on low suction without the beater bar; Do not brush or scrub; Keep dry; Do not fold; Trim a loose strand with scissors; never pull it; Some shedding is natural at first\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade In\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I vacuum this wool runner?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a low suction setting with the beater or roller bar switched off, as the maker advises, and never brush or scrub the pile.

The maker notes that shedding is a natural property of a new rug, so a little loose fluff at first is expected and nothing to worry about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat should I do if a thread works loose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maker asks that you never pull at it; simply snip it level with the surrounding pile using a pair of scissors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this runner by a back door or in a bathroom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would keep it to dry rooms.

The two floral medallions match, and the scrolls and pink flowers repeat at each end, so the runner looks balanced whichever way round you lay it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I store the runner when it is not in use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoll it rather than folding it, because the maker asks that the rug is never folded.
