Description

Velmette is a plain shaggy runner rug in a deep chocolate brown, one even colour from end to end. The pile is long and soft, and close up you can see fine glossy strands running through the thicker yarn, which catch the light and give the brown a gentle sheen. The fibre is 100% polyester and the rug is hand tufted, meaning the yarn is punched through a backing by hand rather than woven on a loom. It comes in one size, a 67 by 200cm runner.

The maker suggests living rooms and bedrooms, and the long, narrow shape earns its place in both: along the side of a bed, so the first steps of the morning land on something warm, or in front of a sofa where a full size rug would be too much. Its proportions also suit a hallway or a landing, adding a strip of softness along a route you walk every day. A deep brown like this grounds a pale floor and sits comfortably beside oak, cream walls and warm lamplight.

At 3cm thick, the rug has a real cushion underfoot, so check the gap under any door that will swing across it before you choose the spot. Care is simple and dry: the maker advises vacuuming regularly, brushing gently or vacuuming with the floor tool, a dry shampoo when it needs freshening, and a specialist cleaner for anything more. It should be kept dry. When it first arrives, roll it the opposite way and leave it to rest flat for a full 24 hours so it settles, then give it a shake to lift the pile. On a smooth floor such as wood or tile, an underlay helps keep a runner in place, and measuring your hallway or bedside first makes sure the 67 by 200cm size fits with a border of floor showing.

Frequently Asked

Does the chocolate shade lean more brown or more black?

It reads as a warm, deep brown rather than a black or a grey, with lighter glints wherever the glossy strands in the pile catch the light.

Why did the maker choose polyester for this shaggy runner?

The maker picked polyester because it wears well over time and stays soft to stand on, which matters in a long pile that takes daily footsteps.

Can this runner go in the washing machine?

No, this is not a machine washable rug. Stick to dry methods at home and leave any deeper clean to a specialist cleaner, as the maker advises.

Can I use it in a bathroom or a conservatory?

No. The maker asks for this rug to be kept away from the wet, so it belongs in dry indoor rooms such as a bedroom, living room, hallway or landing, never a bathroom, wet room or damp conservatory.

Will a 67 by 200cm runner fit beside a double bed?

At 200cm long it runs close to the full length of a standard bed, so it sits neatly along one side of a double or king size bed with a little floor showing at each end.

Is this runner suitable for a toddler's bedroom?

The maker advises keeping this rug away from children under 36 months, so we would choose it for an older child's bedroom or a grown up room instead.
