Yellow wakes a room up. On the Gabbeh Lola runner the colour is warm and even, and it brightens a bedroom with white or grey walls.

Will the yellow Lola runner suit my bedside?

Yes, and its short pile helps. This low pile rug lies neatly along the bed and gives a soft first step in the morning. Out in the hall it turns into a cheerful hall runner, and heated floors are fine for it. Made by hand, it can differ slightly from the listed size, so the size guide is useful for keeping a strip of floor at each end. Among bedroom rugs, a yellow runner by the bed brings real colour in a single plain shade.

What is the yellow Gabbeh runner made of?

This wool rug is 100% wool in the pile and on the back, woven by hand in India. Warp and weft are worked together on the loom and form its structure. Wool doesn't catch fire easily, and it won't melt. It sits well with jaloom's wool rugs as a plain Gabbeh rug.

How do I deal with a spill on the yellow runner?

Blot it at once with a pale cloth, working from the edge inwards, and don't rub. The few loose fibres new wool sheds at first settle with regular vacuuming, which is most of how to clean your rug day to day. Yellow Lola stays put on smooth floors with an underlay trimmed a bit smaller than the runner.
