Viridescent Blue 5' x 8' Rug

A 5' x 8' rug is an excellent choice for smaller living areas or for defining specific zones in a larger room. For a balanced look, we recommend following the "18-inch rule," which suggests leaving roughly 18 inches of bare floor between the rug's edge and the walls. If you have a larger open-concept layout, you may want to consider this same style in its 7' x 9' or 8' x 11' variations to better anchor your seating arrangement.

Absolutely. This rug was specifically designed with a relaxed coastal atmosphere in mind, inspired by the soothing currents of water and the serenity of "sitting on the dock of the bay." The soft blend of blue hues and the organic, braided texture make it a perfect centerpiece for homes looking to capture a casual, breezy seaside aesthetic.

The braided construction of this rug provides a unique, multi-dimensional texture that is both visually appealing and durable. Braided rugs are known for their resilience in high-traffic areas, as the interwoven fibers are better equipped to hide minor wear and foot traffic. This specific design features a subtle textured surface inspired by water currents, making it a sophisticated yet sturdy addition to casual living spaces.

To keep your rug looking its best, we recommend regular vacuuming to remove dust and debris. For spills, our care experts suggest blotting the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth and a mild detergent mixed with cool water. Avoid heavy scrubbing, as this can disturb the braided texture. For a deep refresh, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the soft color blend.

Items designated as "Direct Ship Only" are shipped directly from the vendor rather than through our standard white-glove furniture delivery trucks.

Yes, we highly recommend using a high-quality rug pad. Not only does a pad provide extra cushioning underfoot, but it also prevents the rug from slipping on hard surfaces like hardwood or tile. Additionally, a rug pad acts as a protective barrier that reduces friction, helping to extend the life of the fibers and protect your flooring from potential scratches.
