A dining room with a table for six. A living room with a three-seater and an armchair. A 200x290 rug covers both with room to spare, about 6ft 7in by 9ft 6in.
Many designs measure exactly 200 x 290 cm, others a size close to it. Check the measurements on the product page before you order.
With 60 cm spare around the table, the chairs stay on the rug when they are pushed back. On 200 x 290 cm that means a table of up to roughly 80 x 170 cm. Flatwoven kilims and jute make it easier to slide the chairs. More sizes for eating areas are on dining room rug.
A 200x290 rug in the lounge or bedroom
In front of a three-seater it goes lengthways, with the sofa and armchair resting their front feet on it. Across the foot of a 180 cm double bed it reaches about 50 cm beyond each side. Room to step out barefoot.
