All About Bordered Rugs

Bordered Rugs Collection

In interior design, a rug does more than just cover the floor; it defines the zone. Our Bordered Rugs are the masters of this function. The perimeter design acts as a picture frame for your furniture, creating a sense of neatness and cohesion. Whether you prefer the intricate floral borders found in our vintage rugs or a simple, high-contrast line for a minimalist vibe, these rugs bring immediate structure to any chaotic open floor plan.

The Dining Room Favorite

Bordered rugs are the number one choice for eating areas. The border visually contains the table and chairs, grounding the set. To keep this area practical as well as stylish, we recommend choosing from our washable dining room rugs, which offer the classic framed look with the ability to easily wash away food spills.

Classic Meets Contemporary

While borders are traditional, they work beautifully in modern homes too. A solid color rug with a single contrasting stripe offers a sleek aesthetic that complements modern rugs lovers. It adds visual interest to the edges of the room without cluttering the center, making your space feel larger and more organized.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Bordered Rugs

Find quick answers to common questions about our Bordered Rugs, including care and more.

How should I place furniture on a bordered rug?

With a bordered rug, symmetry is key. Ideally, you want the border to be visible around your furniture. In a living room, place the front legs of your sofa just inside the border line. This highlights the design and creates a cohesive living room rugs arrangement that feels intentional and grounded.

Can I use a bordered rug in a small room?

Yes, but be careful with the border thickness. A very thick border can make a small room feel boxed in. For compact spaces, we suggest choosing a rug with a thin, subtle border or opting for our plain rugs to keep the floor looking open and airy.

Can I layer a bordered rug?

Absolutely! A bordered rug makes an excellent base layer. You can place a textured jute rug underneath a smaller bordered rug to add dimension. Alternatively, use a large neutral bordered rug as the foundation and layer a smaller, irregular hide or patterned rug on top.

Are bordered rugs hard to keep clean?

It depends on the material, not the pattern. However, because the border is at the edge where people step on and off, it can show wear faster. That's why we suggest browsing our washable rugs selection for high-traffic zones, so you can keep those crisp edges looking fresh and clean.
