Croor Green 2'6 x 8' Runner Rug

This rug features a chic checkered pattern that makes it a versatile statement piece. The "transitional" design allows it to bridge the gap between different aesthetics; it adds structured geometric interest to contemporary spaces while providing a classic, grounded feel to more traditional or casual rooms. The blend of green hues acts as a sophisticated neutral that complements both light wood finishes and darker furniture.

Measuring 30 inches wide by 96 inches long, this 8-foot runner is designed to fit most standard residential hallways and walkways. When placing a runner, a great interior design tip is to leave a few inches of floor space visible on all sides to create visual definition. This size is also excellent for grounding a long entryway or providing a soft, warm landing alongside a bed.

With a 0.5-inch pile height, this rug offers a plush, luxurious feel while maintaining a relatively low profile. This height is generally suitable for clearing most standard interior doors, making it a practical choice for apartments or older homes where door-to-floor clearance might be tight. Its balanced thickness provides significant noise reduction in long hallways without creating a tripping hazard.

Safety and stability are essential for narrow rugs in transition zones. To prevent the rug from sliding or bunching on smooth surfaces like hardwood, tile, or laminate, we highly recommend using a non-slip rug pad. A quality pad not only keeps the runner securely in place but also adds an extra layer of comfort underfoot and protects your flooring from the rug’s backing over time.

This runner is crafted from 100% wool, a naturally resilient fiber that is ideal for the busiest areas of your home. Wool is prized for its exceptional durability and natural elasticity, meaning the fibers "spring back" even after heavy foot traffic. Furthermore, the natural oils in wool provide an inherent level of soil resistance, making it easier to keep clean in entryways or kitchens compared to many synthetic materials.

To maintain the beauty of this hand-tufted piece, our care experts recommend vacuuming at least once a week to remove dirt before it becomes embedded in the pile. If a spill occurs, blot it immediately with a clean, dry cloth and a small amount of mild detergent mixed with cool water. Because wool is a premium natural fiber, avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar on high settings to prevent excessive shedding and preserve the rug's texture.
