Description
Nolmenne in Mink is a plain, long pile plush rug in a warm taupe beige between soft brown and stone. Look closely and you will see two kinds of yarn working together: thicker, crinkled tufts nearer the base and finer, glossy strands above them, which catch the light and give the surface a gentle sheen. With no pattern, the colour and that sheen do the talking, so it adds warmth to a room without fighting with the cushions, throws or artwork in it. It is tufted from 100% polyester, and you can choose from 60 by 120cm, 80 by 150cm, 120 by 170cm and 160 by 230cm.
We would put it where you are most likely to have bare feet: the living room and the bedroom. The 60 by 120cm size makes a soft landing beside a bed, so your first step of the morning meets warm pile instead of a cold floor. The 80 by 150cm suits the space in front of an armchair or at the foot of a bed. The 120 by 170cm sits in front of a sofa and pulls a seating area together, and the 160 by 230cm is large enough to go under a sofa and coffee table, giving a living room one soft, unbroken spread of colour. Whichever you choose, a plain rug like this stays easy to place as a room changes around it.
The rug is 5cm thick, so if it will sit where a door opens, check the door clears it first. Care is dry and simple: vacuum it regularly, use a dry shampoo if it needs freshening, and send it to a specialist cleaner when it needs more than that. When it arrives, reverse roll it and leave it flat for 24 hours so it settles. Measure your space before you order, and on a smooth floor an underlay helps keep the rug in place.

Frequently Asked
What colours go well with Mink?
Mink is a warm taupe beige, so it sits comfortably with cream, ivory, stone and soft grey, with natural oak or walnut furniture, and with deeper chocolate browns. The glossy strands also pick up warm metallic accents such as brass.
Can I put this rug in a bathroom?
We would not. The maker's care asks for the rug to be kept away from the wet, so it belongs in dry rooms such as a living room or a bedroom.
How should I vacuum a long pile rug like this?
Brush the pile gently, or vacuum it using a floor tool attachment, and give the rug a shake from time to time to restore the pile and keep it looking good.
Is the pile soft enough for sitting on the floor?
It is a plush long pile in polyester, so it makes a comfortable spot to sit in front of a sofa or to lean against the side of a bed with a book.
