Finding the right small rug

Small rugs do their job through precision, not scale: a runner by the bed or in a hallway, a small round rug under a side table, or a compact rectangular piece at the entryway. Within this range you’ll find hand-knotted wool designs made to last, easy-care small washable rugs that suit kids’ rooms and busy entryways, and lighter cotton and flatweave pieces that are simple to lift, shake out and move around. Colours span calm single-tone neutrals through to bold, multicoloured patterns, so it’s as much about picking the right mood as the right size. If you need a rug to sit under furniture or fill more of a room, our medium rugs start at 160 cm.

Frequently asked questions

A small rug measures under 160 cm on its longest side. At Rugvista this includes round rugs from 100–150 cm diameter, and rectangular sizes such as 60 x 90 cm, 80 x 120 cm and 100 x 150 cm. For anything from 160 cm and up, see our medium rugs.

A small rug works best as an accent rather than a room’s main rug – by the front door, at the bedside, in front of a kitchen sink, or under a small coffee table. It’s not usually the right size to anchor a full living room or dining space, where a medium or large size will sit better.

On its own, a small rug won’t cover enough floor to anchor a typical living room seating area. It works well layered as an accent – in front of an armchair, under a side table, or in a reading corner – but for a rug under a sofa and coffee table, a medium or large size is a better fit.

Small rugs are a popular choice as bedside pieces – one on each side of a double or king bed, or a single strip along the foot end. A 60 x 90 cm rug suits either side of the bed, while 100 x 150 cm rugs offer more coverage at the foot end, so your feet land on something soft without needing a rug that fits under the bed itself.
