{"product_id":"charlotte-velvet-veil-runner","title":"Harmony Haven Runner","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Charlotte Collection features a neutral palette of rugs exemplified by its high and low shrunken yarn construction. Made from 100% polypropylene, these Turkish-made rugs are hard-wearing and easy to clean. Perfect for those seeking non-distinct patterns with a natural collection of colors, these rugs add a subtle touch of elegance to any space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonest about its construction, calm in its palette — Harmony Haven Runner is straightforward to live with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's under the surface\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt a glance: Turkish-made. We've worked with Turkish mills for decades — the country's heritage in rugs runs deep, and the power-loom programmes are some of the most consistent in the world. The case for polypropylene in a family room is straightforward: it is cheaper to replace than upholstery and tougher to ruin than wool. The 11mm pile sits in the sweet spot for everyday living — soft enough to feel good underfoot, short enough that the vacuum gets right to the base. Edges are bound and finished cleanly so they sit flat and stay flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the look\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour story matters here. Charcoal grounds a room in a way that pale neutrals never quite do — it makes timber furniture look richer and lets pale walls breathe. Up close you can see how the dye sits in the fibre — saturated, even, with none of the patchiness of a cheaper construction. Across a 200x290cm or 240x330cm, that calm reads as confidence rather than absence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLiving with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a real Australian room, among the rooms our customers describe to us, in a Perth open-plan living-dining where one large rug has to define both zones is the most common context for a piece like this. 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. It handles a Labrador, a Cavoodle, or two of each. We have heard variations on that brief many times. Once you have it down, the rug is one of the lowest-maintenance pieces of furniture you will ever buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSizing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA runner needs to leave a hand's-width of floor visible at each end of the hallway — see our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/rug-size-guide\"\u003eRug Size Guide\u003c\/a\u003e for the room-by-room guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarmony Haven Runner suits the customer who wants the room finished, not the next decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions we get asked\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eDoes the rug have a strong smell when it arrives?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere may be a faint factory or packaging smell on opening — it airs out within a day or two. Lay the rug out, open the windows, and it will settle quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill it cope with kids and pets?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, comfortably. Synthetic pile is stain-resistant, doesn't snag under claws, and lifts spills cleanly. It's the construction we recommend most to growing families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I get rid of a stain?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlot — 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this with underfloor heating?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the pile is not so dense that it traps heat, and the backing handles the moderate temperatures typical of residential underfloor systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill the rug fade in direct sun?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"Austex","offers":[{"title":"80x300cm","offer_id":49693592879271,"sku":"CHAR-VELVET-80X300","price":149.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0474\/8011\/1271\/files\/CHAR-VELVET-RU_1_caf29b27-f458-49d2-82c9-2827d0b383ab.jpg?v=1778516494","url":"https:\/\/www.treasuresofturkey.com.au\/products\/charlotte-velvet-veil-runner","provider":"Treasures Of Turkey","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
