Homework spread across the table, legs swinging under the chairs, and below them the orange Gabbeh Uni, a square wool rug in one bright colour. Orange keeps a dining room cheerful.

The orange square under a dining table

Beneath the table the orange Uni keeps a low pile, so it lies flat under the chairs. With that flat, plain surface the orange square suits the seating around a table, a reason it sits with our dining room rugs, and it moves easily into a lounge or bedroom. On tiles or laminate, put an underlay under it.

Orange sheep's wool, made by hand

Wool is a natural fibre from sheep, and here it forms the 100% wool pile as well as the backing. The orange Uni is woven by hand in India, so its size can vary a little, and our sizing tips help you allow for that. Pure wool brings it into our wool rugs, and it suits underfloor heating.

Caring for the orange square Uni

Beating it from the back now and then, as explained in how to clean your rug, keeps the orange Uni fresh. Turn it occasionally so sun and footsteps are shared out. An underlay a little smaller than the rug keeps the corners flat. Short, springy wool like this asks for little else.
