Understated elegance lends spectacular class to the floral design of this range in its cool hues of blue or grey and relaxed tones of subtle rose or mustard. Medina is fashionably on point with its exceptionally chic, faded look. It's Trendy, but features a classic design, so it will highlight the features of a room without being overbearing in any way. This rug with its contemporary countenance will create an ambient, genteel mood in your living space that will, certainly, be an element of ongoing pride. FEATURES:
Quiet, considered, and easy to commit to — that's the short version of Medina L Grey.
Built and finished
Anatolian-woven. Turkey remains the place where heritage design and modern weaving meet most comfortably — you get the look of a hand-knotted rug at a fraction of the cost. What polypropylene gives up in heritage feel it more than makes back in colourfastness and easy upkeep. A 10mm pile feels soft on bare feet but doesn't trap dust the way a longer pile can. Selvedges are finished cleanly so the rug sits flush against itself without curling at the edges.
Living with it
In practice, this style sits well over blackbutt floorboards, particularly when the rest of the room runs to putty-painted walls. For wine, blood, or any pigmented spill, blot quickly with cold water and a mild detergent — the colour will lift before it has time to bond. Pet hair vacuums out cleanly — the fibre does not hold dander the way a natural pile sometimes can. We have laid one of these under our own dining table for several years; it still reads as new.
About the look
Looked at honestly, the design is doing two things. Navy carries a moody, considered presence — we recommend it in studies, formal lounges, and any room where you want a bit of grown-up weight at floor level. There is depth to the surface — the weave changes height subtly across the pattern, which is what gives the rug its tactile quality. Layered over a hard floor, it gives a room the visual weight it usually needs at floor level.
Which size?
If you are between sizes, we almost always recommend sizing up. Our Rug Size Guide has the room-by-room measurements we use ourselves.
Order with confidence: this is one of the pieces our customers most often write back to tell us about.
Common questions
Does it work with a robot vacuum?
Yes for low and medium piles. For the deeper shaggies in our range, a robot vacuum will struggle a bit — you'll get better results with a regular upright on a higher setting.
Can I cut the rug to size?
We don't recommend cutting a finished rug — the edges are bound and the construction relies on that binding to stay intact. If you need a custom size, message us and we'll see what's possible.
Do you offer samples?
We don't typically send physical samples — most of our customers find the photos and our written notes get them close enough. If you want extra photos in natural light, message us and we'll send them through.
Is the back of the rug latex-coated?
The backing is a standard textile finish — it sits flat on the floor and won't mark timber boards. For hard floors, we'd still recommend a rug pad to keep it from sliding.
Will the colour look the same as the website photo?
Very close, but never identical — every screen renders colour slightly differently, and the rug itself will read warmer or cooler depending on the light in your room. If you want certainty, message us and we'll send additional photos taken in natural light.
