Rug Super Shaggy 65009-918, red, 160×230

Pile and pattern

Super Shaggy is a deep-pile rug your hand sinks into: the first photo shows a hand almost disappearing in the loops. On pile this long a design is never crisp; its outlines are soft and a little blurred. Here it is a damask ornament of large orange scrolls with lilies and curls on a red ground, repeated across the field.

Colour in the room

Red with orange is a hot combination, and the rug instantly becomes the main colour spot. In the room photo it lies in a living room with a grey sofa, beige armchairs and pale walls: neutral furniture tones down the brightness and keeps the room from looking busy. Dark wood surfaces also suit it.

Material and care

The pile is polypropylene, machine production. Long pile traps dust deeper than short pile, so vacuum it without a beater brush on low power. Shake it out or fluff the pile by hand now and then so the loops do not flatten under furniture.

Size

160×230 cm is a popular size for the area by a sofa and for a bedroom. A fluffy rug is especially welcome beside the bed: in the morning you step into soft pile instead of onto a cold floor.

More deep-pile rugs are collected in shaggy rugs, and other contemporary designs in modern rugs.
