Leopold Round Cotton Rug 130cm - Multi

Leopold is a round cotton rug for a child's room, printed with a parade of animals that walks the whole way round its edge: a penguin, a polar bear, a whale, a monkey, a rhino, a tiger, a lion, a toucan and an elephant among them. In the middle, a dashed flight path loops around the words "Let's be adventurers", with a small aeroplane setting off on the journey. At 130cm across, it is generous enough for a child to sit on with a picture book or spread out a game, yet at 0.98KG it is easy to lift and move between rooms. It is a woven fabric of 95% cotton and 5% other fibre, with a multicoloured printed design.

We think it is most at home in a nursery, bedroom or playroom, wherever a soft place on the floor is welcome. Laid beside a small armchair, it turns a quiet patch of floor into a reading nook, and the animals give little ones plenty to spot and name while a story is read. The words and the little plane suit a room with a travel or world theme, and the round outline softens a space full of straight lines from beds, shelves and storage. Cotton is soft and comfortable underfoot, which suits a rug made for sitting, kneeling and playing.

Its finish is a woven fabric with the design printed on top, and the high cotton content keeps the feel soft and natural. Care is simple to remember: the maker's guidance says no tumble drying and no ironing, so let it dry naturally and smooth it by hand. To style it, let the edge sit partly under a chair or the foot of a bed so the parade seems to march into the room, and repeat one or two shades from the print in a cushion or throw. The styling props shown are not included.
