Stradleigh Blue 5'3 Round Rug

Round rugs are an expert design tool used to soften the sharp, linear angles of square or rectangular rooms. They are particularly effective in entryways with high ceilings or circular foyers, where the shape draws the eye outward and creates a sense of movement. Choosing a round floral rug like this one can also help break up the "boxy" feel of a room filled with angular furniture, such as sectionals or long consoles.

A 5'3" round rug (63 inches in diameter) is a versatile size ideal for defining smaller zones within a home. It works exceptionally well in foyers to create an inviting entrance or tucked into a reading nook beneath a comfortable accent chair. For small dining areas, this rug is best paired with a bistro or cafe-style table. Our design experts recommend ensuring that at least the front legs of your furniture sit on the rug to anchor the space effectively and avoid a "floating" look.

Yes, this rug is meticulously woven from 100% polypropylene, a high-performance synthetic fiber known for its exceptional resilience. Polypropylene is naturally resistant to common household stains and fading, making it a professional-grade choice for active households. The medium pile height provides a soft, comfortable surface for play while remaining durable enough to withstand the daily foot traffic of a busy family home.

Based on our expertise with synthetic materials, maintenance for this rug is straightforward but specific. To preserve the integrity of the woven fibers, you should vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting; avoid using a beater bar, as the rotating brush can cause unnecessary wear or snagging. For accidental spills, we recommend immediate spot cleaning by blotting—never rubbing—the area with a clean, dry cloth to prevent the liquid from settling into the pile.

To ensure your rug lays flat and stays securely in place, we highly recommend the use of a high-quality rug pad. This is especially important for round rugs in high-traffic entryways or hallways where sliding can become a safety hazard. A rug pad not only provides essential grip on hardwood, laminate, or tile surfaces but also adds a layer of protective cushioning that extends the life of the rug’s backing.

Polypropylene is an ideal choice for humid environments because, unlike natural fibers like jute or wool, it is highly resistant to moisture absorption. This resistance makes the rug less susceptible to mold, mildew, and damp odors, which are common concerns in coastal regions or areas with high humidity. Its synthetic construction ensures the rug maintains its shape and vibrant floral pattern even when exposed to varying indoor moisture levels.
