A cream runner beside the bed is a small comfort you notice every morning, because your feet land on wool instead of bare boards. The Bidjar Herati in Creme was made for that kind of spot, and it does just as well down a hall. The pale ground and traditional oriental pattern suit calm bedrooms.

Knotted in India, spun from wool

This runner is knotted by hand, one knot at a time, around the warp threads. The pile is 100% wool and so is the backing. Hand-spun wool looks a little uneven in the yarn up close. The design recalls the classic Bidjar herati pattern, and this runner was made by hand in India. You can find other takes on the same material in our Wool Rugs.

A low pile rug for a long, narrow space

The pile is short, so the pattern stays crisp and the runner lies flat. As a hall runner it frames the walkway, and in the bedroom it can sit on each side of the bed as a pair. If you're browsing our Bedroom Rugs, this is the oriental option in cream. The wool is fine over underfloor heating. There are also other colours and shapes of this design, and advice on rug sizes helps you pick lengths.

Looking after the cream Bidjar Herati

Looking after your rug is simple with this one. Blot a spill with a light cloth from the outside in and never rub, because it lifts the spill rather than pushing it in. A few loose fibres in the first weeks are normal and fade with regular vacuuming. A non-slip underlay, cut slightly smaller than the runner, stops it creeping on a smooth floor.
