antique rugs for the bedroom

Few things make a bedroom cosier than stepping onto a wool rug as you get out of bed. Beyond the comfort, an antique rug brings colour, history and a touch of calm to the most private room in the house. Since the rug in a bedroom almost always relates to the bed, the secret is in the position and the size. Here are the arrangements that work.

The three ways to place it

There are three classic arrangements, and all of them look good:

• A large rug under the bed. The most common and the most comfortable. The rug goes under the bed and extends past the sides and the foot, so you step onto it as you get up. Ideally it should reach 45 to 60 cm on each side of the bed.
• Two rugs or runners at the sides. One piece on each side of the bed, a good option when the room is narrower or when you want to use smaller, special rugs.
• A piece laid across the foot of the bed. It adds extra charm and warms the passage, on its own or together with the rug underneath.

We set out the measurements by room in tips for placing and choosing the right rug size.

Comfort and colour in the room for rest

The wool of antique rugs is soft and warm underfoot, which suits what a bedroom is for. On colour, follow your taste: many people prefer softer palettes for a calm mood, but a strong-coloured piece can be exactly what brings a neutral bedroom to life. The natural-dye tones, even in the reds and blues, have a depth that soothes rather than tires.

Pieces that work well in the bedroom

It is worth looking at the Persian rugs, with their more elegant design, and also the Caucasians, with stronger colour, and seeing the effect of a rug in a room in how antique rugs can transform your space. To see everything with sizes and prices, the catalogue is always up to date.
