Bring a touch of traditional elegance to your home with this stunning rug. Made in Turkey, this rug features a muted pattern in soft pink tones that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The soft touch pile feels luxurious underfoot, while the small fringe adds a charming touch of texture.
Pick up a corner of Novara Legacy Rose and the density of the weave is the first thing you'll register.
About the make
Underneath the look, woven in Turkey. 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. Polyester yarns hold dye exceptionally well, which is why the colours on this piece look as rich as they do. This is a 13mm pile — soft, considered, with enough density to spring back from foot traffic without flattening. Construction-wise, this is built to look the same six months in as the day it arrived.
How it handles real life
Day to day, this style sits well over Tasmanian oak floorboards, particularly when the rest of the room runs to raw plaster finishes. For shaggy polyester piles, vacuum on a higher setting (or with the beater bar off) and shake the rug out periodically. Once you have it down, the rug is one of the lowest-maintenance pieces of furniture you will ever buy.
About the look
What is happening at the surface is straightforward. Grey rugs sit quietly in a room and let the rest of the space do the talking — it's why they outsell almost everything else we carry. Classical medallion-and-border layout, but the colour palette has been softened so it sits comfortably in a contemporary room. Photographs flatten the surface; in person, the weave reads with more dimension than any catalogue image can convey.
On sizing
A 200x290cm covers most three-seater living rooms; a 240x330cm suits the larger open-plan layouts that have become common in new Australian builds. Our Rug Size Guide shows you which fits.
Order Novara Legacy Rose if the room is asking for a quiet, well-made foundation rather than a feature piece.
FAQs
Will the rug fade in direct sun?
Some fade is possible if a rug sits in direct, unfiltered sun day after day — that's true of any rug. The dyes used here are UV-stabilised and hold up well to the conditions in most Australian rooms.
How do I get rid of a stain?
Blot — never rub. Cool water and a small amount of mild detergent on a clean cloth handles most spills. Work from the outside of the stain in. Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals.
Will it sit flat once unrolled?
Almost always within 24–48 hours. If you see any waves from the rolled packaging, lay the rug pile-up in the room and let it relax overnight — gravity does the rest. For stubborn corners, rolling the rug briefly in the opposite direction usually does it.
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.
