The Ontario Silk Cream brings a fresh, modern touch to interiors with its soft ivory base and elegant arched line design. The repeating geometric curves create a sense of balance and movement, while the light neutral tones keep the overall look clean and versatile. Minimal yet stylish, this rug is an effortless way to add texture and sophistication to any living space.
Quiet, considered, and easy to commit to — that's the short version of Ontario Silk Cream Luxe Modern.
On colour
Looked at honestly, the design is doing two things. We sell more cream rugs than any other colour. They suit the way most Australians live: warm-neutral walls, pale timbers, lots of natural light. 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.
How it's made
Made in Turkey on power looms. 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. Polypropylene does not hold odour the way wool can, which matters in a home with pets or open-plan cooking. The pile height is 13mm — substantial enough to feel luxurious without crossing into shaggy territory. Edges are bound and finished cleanly so they sit flat and stay flat.
How it handles real life
This is the kind of piece that works in a Brisbane Queenslander where the breezy palette of the room calls for something quietly grounded. Vacuum on a medium setting weekly, and once a month go over the rug end-to-end with the suction set higher to lift trapped dust from the base. Rolling vacuum, ride-on toys, the cat — none of it bothers the surface in any way you will notice.
On sizing
Sizes range across our usual run — if you're unsure which to pick, our Rug Size Guide walks through the common Australian room layouts.
If you want the room to look finished from the day the rug arrives, Ontario Silk Cream Luxe Modern delivers on that.
Common questions
Can I use this with underfloor heating?
Yes — the pile is not so dense that it traps heat, and the backing handles the moderate temperatures typical of residential underfloor systems.
Will the pattern repeat be obvious?
Not on this construction. The pattern is woven across the full face of the rug rather than printed, so you won't see the kind of seam-like repetition you sometimes get with a printed surface.
Can I put a rug pad underneath?
Yes, and we'd recommend it on hard floors. A pad keeps the rug from slipping, adds a little extra softness underfoot, and helps the pile wear evenly over time.
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.
How thick is the rug overall?
The total thickness includes the pile plus the backing — for most of our rugs, that ends up somewhere between 8mm and 30mm depending on the pile listed. If you need a precise figure for a door clearance, message us and we'll measure.
