Bremhaus Elwy Area Rug

A worn crosshatch rug in black and gray, woven low and dense so it sits flat under furniture without fighting for attention in the room.

Black lines cross over a pale gray ground in a worn, uneven grid, the kind of pattern that reads as texture from across a room and abstract art up close. No two squares repeat exactly.

• A worn crosshatch grid

  Black lines break and cross over a pale gray and white ground in an uneven grid, with two lighter bands crossing through like a faded windowpane check. No two squares repeat exactly, so the pattern reads as texture from across the room and abstract art up close.

• Machine woven, medium pile

  This rug is machine woven from polypropylene rather than a natural fiber, which is what keeps a two-tone pattern this detailed affordable and consistent edge to edge. Pile height measures 0.38 inches, a medium pile that stays smooth enough to let a door swing open without dragging.

• Sizing it to your room

  This design comes in multiple sizes to fit different rooms, so measure before you choose one. In a living room, let the front legs of the sofa and any chairs rest on the rug. In a dining room, leave enough rug past the table that a chair stays on it when pushed back.

• Use a rug pad

  A rug pad is recommended for this rug and is not included. It adds a layer of safety by keeping the rug from slipping underfoot, stops the corners from curling up, and gives a bit of cushion that a pile this dense does not fully provide on its own.

• It will not shed

  The pile is polypropylene, not wool, so there is no loose fiber to shed and no early weeks of fluff on the floor. It ships rolled, so expect a crease or a curled edge for the first few days. Lay it flat and let it settle, and the roll relaxes on its own.

• Built for daily traffic

  The weave is stain resistant and pet friendly, and it is rated safe for use over floor heating, so a warmed floor is not a reason to skip a room. It holds up in a living room, a bedroom, an entryway or a dining area under heavy foot traffic.

• Everyday care

  Regular vacuuming keeps the fibers upright and the pattern looking crisp, and a spill blots up with a clean cloth before it can set, since the fiber resists stains rather than absorbing them. For a deep clean or a heavily soiled patch, professional cleaning is recommended to protect the pile.

• What ships in the box

  The rug ships rolled rather than folded, so there is no set crease down the middle. A rug pad is not included and is worth ordering at the same time. Every other piece shown in the room photos, from the sofa to the shelf, is not included. Check your size before it arrives.

Good to know

• The only size offered is 9 by 12 feet, sized to anchor a full room, not an accent.
• Under a dining table, leave enough rug beyond the chairs so they can slide back freely.
• In a living room, keep the sofa's front legs on the rug to anchor the seating area.
• None. Unroll it flat and let it settle for a day or two before final placement.
• Furniture and decor shown are styling only. The rug is the product; the size shown is the only size this listing ships.
