Description

Velmette is a plain red shaggy rug with a long, deep pile in one rich shade of red across the whole surface, with no pattern or border at all. Up close, the strands gather into small, dense tufts with a fine sheen running through them, so the colour shifts gently as light moves across the room. It is made from 100% polyester, which the maker chose for durability and for comfort underfoot, and it is hand tufted rather than woven on a machine. We offer it in five sizes: 90 by 150cm, 110 by 160cm, 140 by 200cm, 160 by 230cm and 200 by 290cm.

The maker designed this rug for living rooms and bedrooms, where bare feet make the most of its depth. The 90 by 150cm size suits the side of a bed or the floor in front of a reading chair, so the first step of the morning lands somewhere soft. The 110 by 160cm and 140 by 200cm sizes fit beside a coffee table or across the foot of a double bed. At 160 by 230cm the rug sits comfortably under the front legs of a sofa, and 200 by 290cm is large enough to hold a whole seating group, giving a big living room one warm block of colour that ties the furniture together.

Its hand tufted build and 3cm thickness give the rug plenty of body underfoot, so check that any door opening into the room clears it before you order. The maker's care is to vacuum regularly, freshen it with dry shampoo when needed, send it to a specialist cleaner for anything deeper and keep it dry. Measure your space before you choose a size, and when the rug is new, reverse-roll it and leave it to lie flat for a full 24 hours so it settles. On a smooth floor, an underlay helps keep it in place.

Frequently Asked

Is the red a bright shade or a deeper one?

It is a rich, true red that leans neither orange nor pink, with lighter highlights where the glossy tips of the strands catch the light.

What does hand tufted mean?

The yarn is punched into a backing with a hand-held tool rather than woven on a loom, which is how a long, dense pile like this one is built up.

Can I use my vacuum's usual head on such a long pile?

The maker recommends going over it with a floor tool attachment or brushing it gently, and doing this regularly keeps the rug looking fresh.

How do I keep the shaggy pile looking full?

Give the rug a good shake from time to time, as the maker advises, which helps the pile stand back up and keeps its appearance even.

Can this rug go in a bathroom or a kitchen?

We would keep it out of both, because the maker asks for the rug to be kept away from damp, and it is designed for living rooms and bedrooms.
