Chenille rugs

A chenille rug, what is it anyway?

Chenille is the French word for ‘caterpillar’. Indeed, like many caterpillars, the chenille thread is a bit ‘hair?. Chenille used to be seen as a rich and opulent material, just like silk. This is because that ‘hair’ chenille gives it a unique lustre. And that, in turn, comes out beautifully in a chenille rug.

The rugs are made using the chenille weaving technique, a special technique also used to make curtains, for example. This technique allows for quite creative weaving, creating the most beautiful patterns.

Patterns in a chenille rug

Do you find a plain rug a bit boring? Then opt for a patterned rug. You can find a lot of chenille rugs with beautiful patterns. Just look among the enchanting rose kilims.

Or how about a great chenille vintage rug? Do you love a bit of bustle and cosiness? Then chenille patchwork rugs are highly recommended. To ensure the rugs don’t slide on the floor, add a non-slip underlay to your order for a small price. This not only ensures that you won’t trip over your rug, but also that your beautiful chenille rug will wear out less quickly.

A chenille rug in the room

A chenille rug gives your room a whole new look., without having to buy new furniture or paint walls. And that new look never gets boring, because the light entering the room is always reflected in a different way by your chenille rug. So this keeps things nice and lively. Viscose rugs have a similar effect, by the way.

Are you not so fond of a shiny effect but prefer to keep your floor more matte? Then choose a rug made of wool, cotton or jute. These natural fabrics do add atmosphere and warmth to your room, but are slightly less present than a chenille rug.

With a chenille living room rug, you bring elegance and style into your home. They come in different sizes and shapes. For example, we have a beautiful collection of round chenille rugs. Perfect to put as an eye-catcher in the room or hallway. And how about a beautiful chenille rug in the bedroom?”
