Norene Navy 2'3 x 8'9 Rug

Yes, this rug is machine-woven from polypropylene, a synthetic fiber specifically chosen for its exceptional durability and resilience. Polypropylene is naturally resistant to wear and tear, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic "zones" in your home. Unlike natural fibers that may shed, this material maintains its structure and vibrant colors even with heavy daily use.

Measuring 8'9" in length, this rug is perfectly sized for long hallways, entryways, or as a soft accent alongside a kitchen island. According to standard design practices, you should aim to leave roughly 18 inches of bare floor between the edges of the rug and the walls to create a balanced look that visually extends the space without making it feel cramped.

Maintaining this rug is straightforward due to its synthetic construction. For regular care, we recommend vacuuming frequently to remove dust and debris. Based on our expertise with this material, most spills can be easily addressed by blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth and a mild detergent. For a deeper refresh, polypropylene rugs can also be steam-cleaned as needed.

We highly recommend pairing this runner with a high-quality rug pad. While the rug features a well-constructed backing for durability, a separate pad provides essential grip to prevent slipping on smooth surfaces like hardwood or tile. A pad also adds an extra layer of cushioning and protects your flooring from potential scratches, ensuring both your rug and your home stay in top condition.

This rug’s navy base and classic floral details can serve as a sophisticated "anchor" in a modern space. To create a cohesive look, try pulling accent colors from the rug—such as the ivory or green—into your wall decor or throw pillows. Pairing a traditional rug with sleek, modern furniture creates a curated "transitional" aesthetic that adds warmth and character to minimalist interiors.

This rug is an excellent choice for active households. The polypropylene fibers are non-absorbent, which provides a natural resistance to stains and moisture—essential for accidental spills or pet-related messes. Additionally, the intricate traditional floral motif and multi-color palette (including navy, green, and red) are strategically designed to help disguise minor dirt and wear between cleanings.
