Vellitu Blue 3' x 5' Rug

While this rug features a durable machine-woven construction, we highly recommend using a rug pad underneath. A pad provides extra cushioning, prevents the rug from sliding on hard floors—which is especially important for smaller 3' x 5' sizes in high-traffic entries—and protects both the rug backing and your flooring from premature wear.

To maintain the integrity of the machine-woven fibers, you should vacuum carefully using the lowest setting and ensure the beater bar is turned off to prevent fraying. When a deeper clean is needed, simply roll the rug up and machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Based on our material care guidelines, you should avoid bleach, line dry the rug to preserve the backing, and only use a low-heat iron if necessary to remove creases.

This rug is an excellent choice for humid or coastal environments. Unlike natural fiber rugs like wool or jute, which can absorb moisture and become susceptible to mold or mildew, the synthetic machine-woven construction of this rug is more resistant to dampness. Its ability to be thoroughly machine-washed and line-dried ensures you can keep it fresh and free of the musty odors often associated with high-humidity regions.

An oriental pattern in blue and gray tones acts as a "new traditional" anchor that bridges the gap between classic and contemporary styles. To achieve a balanced look, pair the rug with furniture that has clean, modern lines—like a low-profile sofa—to let the intricate pattern serve as the room's focal point. The neutral gray and peach accents in the rug provide a sophisticated color palette that can be pulled into your room's decor through accent pillows or wall art for a cohesive, transitional aesthetic.

A 3' x 5' rug is a versatile size ideal for defining smaller functional zones. Our design experts recommend using this size in entryways, laundry rooms, or as a cozy landing spot next to a bed. In larger living spaces, a rug of this scale works perfectly under a small desk in a home office or in a reading nook to anchor an accent chair and side table without overwhelming the room.

Yes, this rug is specifically designed to keep up with a busy, active lifestyle. Being machine-washable, it handles spills, smudges, and pet accidents with ease. The low 0.3-inch pile height is also a strategic choice for high-traffic homes; it’s less likely to trap pet hair or allergens compared to high-pile options, and its low profile helps prevent tripping in busy hallways or play areas.
