A viscose sheen
Viscose catches light the way silk does, so the colour shifts as you cross the room.

Size
The starter size.
Sits under a coffee table with the front legs of a two-seater on the pile, or on its own in front of an armchair.
15 mm total height — measure your door gap if the rug meets a door swing.
Asiatic recommend an anti-slip underlay for this rug — it stops the rug creeping on hard floors, takes the wear instead of the pile, and is softer underfoot.

Care
As viscose is a delicate fibre we recommend that it be cleaned professionally. Please use a suction only vacuum cleaner as a beater-bar vacuum cleaner could damage the pile. Do not spill liquids as this will damage the pile. Never rub a spill, only blot with a clean white cotton cloth. If a stain cannot be removed seek specialist advice. Do not machine wash. We recommend the use of an anti-slip pad to reduce trip hazards and protect the floor surface. To protect the colours, keep away from direct sunlight. Keep away from fire.
Guidelines only — always refer to the care label attached to your rug.
Which size do I need?
The furniture sets the scale, not the room. Pick the piece the rug has to work with and match it — a well-placed smaller rug still does the job.
What size for a 3-seater sofa? 160 × 230 cm puts the front legs on the pile. 200 × 290 cm brings the whole sofa on. Match the sofa, not the room.
How far from the wall? 20–30 cm of bare floor in a small room, 40–50 cm in a larger one. Don't stretch it to the skirting.
Too big or too small? Too big, as long as a border of floor still shows. A rug that is too small makes the sofa and table look unrelated.
How much rug past the table? About 60 cm on every side. That is the pull-out clearance, so chair legs stay on the rug when someone stands up.
What size for a six-seater? 160 × 230 cm is the smallest that works, with chairs close to the edge. 200 × 290 cm is comfortable.
Which pile suits a dining room? A low pile or flatweave — chairs slide instead of catching.
What size under a king bed? A UK king is roughly 193 × 203 cm. 240 × 340 cm reaches past both bedside tables and looks finished.
And a double? 200 × 290 cm is modest but works. Aim for 40–60 cm of rug at the sides and foot so you land on it getting up.
Can I spend less? Yes — two runners either side of the bed do the same job.
How wide should a runner be? Around 66 cm is standard, leaving 10–20 cm of floor each side.
Where should it start? A little way in from the front door, clear of the door swing.
Will it slip? Not with an anti-slip underlay, which Asiatic recommend for most of their rugs.
Available in 120 x 170 cm·200 x 290 cm·240 x 340 cm
Tip-sheared loop pile, 5 mm
Low enough to sit under a door and a coffee table without bunching, warm enough underfoot to walk on barefoot.
Hand woven in India
Made by hand on a loom, which is why no two rugs carry exactly the same texture.
