The bedroom is where this grey Lui runner earns its place, along the side of the bed where you step out each morning. Warm wool instead of a cold floor. One of our plain short pile rugs, so it stays flat and quiet next to the bed frame.

Can the grey Lui runner go in the hallway too?

Yes. A long shape like this works as a hallway runner, framing the path from the front door to the stairs. Leave a strip of floor free along the walls and in front of doors so they still swing open. Measure the hall and choose the length that leaves both ends visible. Among our bedroom rugs it is a low pile rug that suits a pair, one on each side of the bed, and it can lie over underfloor heating.

What is the grey Lui runner made of?

Pure wool, 100% in the pile, with a wool back. Weavers in India made it by hand, warp and weft crossing on the loom to build its plain structure. It sits alongside jaloom's wool rugs and can differ slightly from its listed size, as handmade pieces do.

How do I clean the grey Lui runner?

Our care guide recommends a slightly smaller underlay under the grey Lui, so the runner stays put and the corners stay flat. Blot spills from the outside in with a light cloth, and vacuum regularly while loose fibres from the first weeks come out. Short wool makes up the pile on this runner.
