Light grey is easy to live with. It sits next to white oak, charcoal chairs or a navy sofa without fighting them, and on the round Ava it takes on a pearly sheen.

Light grey viscose, woven by hand

Made from wood cellulose, viscose has a silky gleam, which is what you see on the light grey Ava. A cotton backing carries the 100% viscose pile, and the whole circle was woven by hand in India. Every handmade circle can vary a little from the stated diameter. Smooth and cool underfoot, it has the feel of our Viscose Rugs.

The grey Ava round rug in dining room and lounge

Round ones among our Dining Room Rugs, like this grey Ava, follow the line of a round table top. Living rooms suit it in front of the sofa or beside an armchair. Short pile keeps it flat. On smooth floors, slide an underlay beneath it so it stays put. Light grey Ava is fine over underfloor heating. Use the size guide to pick a diameter where pulled-back chairs stay on the rug.

Cleaning the light grey Ava round rug

The care guide for viscose sticks to dry methods, and the light grey Ava follows suit. Vacuum on low suction in the direction of the pile, and leave out beating or brushing. If juice lands on it, press nothing; lay an absorbent cloth on the spot and let it draw the liquid up.
