With the power to pull any room together, a rug is one of those purchases that you really have to think through. There are several factors to keep in mind when looking for the perfect piece – like quality, style, texture and price – but the good news is that there are also tons of options to suit every lifestyle, taste and budget. We’ve rounded up a repertory of rugs that are both functional and stylish – and ready to complete your space.
For The Traditionalist: Desert Caravan Vintage Rug by Sister Golden – A true vintage enthusiast will know that heritage rug can instantly transport you to a bygone era.

Take this one, for instance, hand-picked by mother-daughter duo Sister Golden from the streets of Marrakech. It’s 100% wool with natural dyes, guaranteeing no one in the world will have this exact same rug.

For The Traditionalist: Turkish Vintage Rug by Kilim Studio – Family-run business Kilim Studio found this Turkish rug made years ago, and sheared the piles to give a faded and worn effect for an even stronger vintage vibe.

Just mind the cleaning instructions when looking for your new addition: indeed, a washable rug is the safest bet. Ruggable, for one, sells washable rugs that easily detach and reattach to their pad; this option from their selection is ideal for a traditional aesthetic.
