Introducing the Ascot Plain Modern Bordered Wool Rug in Silver Grey. This hand-woven wool and viscose rug is a beautiful addition to any home. The modern design and loop stripe detail make it a truly unique piece. This contemporary collection is perfect for any room in your home. With a smart, high shine viscose border, this rug is sure to make a statement in any space.
Please measure your space if you’re considering an 80x150cm size rug. It is a small rug that is smaller than many customers anticipate,
The Ascot rug features an intricately crafted Viscose border with a very fine yarn, exhibiting imperfections, especially along the edging. It's important to note that the border will shed fibers throughout the rug's lifetime. To preserve the delicate viscose pile, it is strongly recommended not to use the vacuum's beater bar on the border as it can damage the pile. Additionally, the central portion of the rug is made of wool, which also shed fibers. If these characteristics might pose challenges for you, we recommend considering an alternative rug.
Our handmade wool and viscose rugs are made by hand, and each one is unique, with imperfections known as 'Abrash,' encompassing natural variations in colour, design, size, pattern, yarn, stitching, and texture. These imperfections, including loose threads, mixed colour yarns, and natural fibre loss, these give each rug character and uniqueness. Loose stray fibres can simply be cut with scissors, avoid pulling fibres, as it can damage the weave. Shedding is normal and expected in all wool rugs, not a manufacturing fault. It is a natural feature that doesn't affect the rug's durability – it won’t wear out; some will shed for the lifetime of the rug. Synthetic latex backing may cause a temporary chemical smell in new rugs, which fades over time. Wool rugs may have a natural, musty scent due to their animal fibre composition. If you prefer uniformity and perfection, consider machine-made rugs with synthetic materials for a consistent look. Please note that even if you exchange a rug, the replacement will have its own distinct imperfections and characteristics. Familiarize yourself with our handmade and wool disclaimers in our help centre to ensure you're informed before making a purchase.

Delivery Information
Always Free Delivery – No Minimum Spend
Transparent pricing: what you see is what you pay, no surprises at checkout.
Dispatch Time
In-stock orders are dispatched within 1-2 business days (Mon-Fri), excluding public holidays. To clarify, our quoted time frame of 1-2 days refers to dispatch, not delivery. Our couriers do not operate on weekends. If your order hasn't been shipped within the specified timeframe, we suggest first verifying whether it's a pre-order that you may have overlooked.
Shipping Locations
We ship exclusively to mainland UK and the Scottish Highlands. We do not deliver to any part of Ireland, Northern Ireland, the Scottish Islands, the Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man. We made this strategic choice to cease our deliveries to Ireland for several key reasons:
- Items frequently being declined at the export hub
- Extensive delays in delivery
- Instances of items going missing, resulting in customer dissatisfaction and a decline in service quality
- Managing returns and faulty items, especially larger ones, posed a cost-effective challenge
- Some customers were unaware of customs and duty taxes, leading to further frustrations in the delivery process
Courier Delivery Times
Deliveries are made Monday to Friday between 8 am and 6 pm. Unfortunately, we can't guarantee an exact delivery time. On the day of delivery, the courier will typically provide a 1-2 hour delivery window. If your item is not delivered on the designated day, it will be rescheduled for the following business day.
Mis-Delivery
If your delivery is marked as "delivered" but you haven't received it, please rest assured that it is almost always due to a simple oversight. The most common reasons include:
- It has been left in your garden, safe place, porch, garage, or behind a gate.
- A family member has taken it in without your knowledge.
- A neighbour has taken it in.
- A family member instructed the driver to leave the item in a safe place without your knowledge.
First, check around your property, including your porch, garage, back garden, bins, behind gates, or other safe places where the courier may have left the package. While we use a signed-for service, drivers may occasionally leave items in secure areas without obtaining a signature. Next, check with your neighbours in case they accepted the delivery on your behalf.
If the tracking indicates a name, such as "signed by Smith," verify if it's a neighbour or someone you are familiar with. Also, check your mailbox for any delivery notes from the courier specifying where the package was left, such as at neighbour number 4. Please verify that the delivery address provided at checkout was 100% accurate, as we do not modify the address—it gets exported to the courier exactly as provided.
If you still cannot locate your item after these steps, please contact us through the support chatbot below. We promise a response within 3 business hours. At this point, we will open a missing item investigation with the courier, requesting GPS data, delivery photos, and signatures to verify where the item was released by the driver. We resolve most issues with the courier within the hour.
Rescheduled Deliveries
If your item is not delivered for any reason on the designated day, it will automatically be rescheduled for delivery by the courier on the next business day, so you do not need to take any action.
Signature Requirement
Please make sure that there is someone available to provide a signature upon the delivery of your package, as a signature is required for all items. Please keep this in mind, especially if there is typically no one at home during the daytime. The courier usually offers a 2-hour delivery window. For large freight items handled by DX Freight, identifiable by tracking codes starting with "L," the driver is expected to call in advance instead.
Pre-Orders
For pre-orders, please monitor the expected delivery date on our site before and after your purchase; these are updated hourly. If you decide you'd rather not wait or if an unexpected delay occurs, you have the flexibility to cancel your order yourself through your order confirmation page. This will trigger an instant, full refund. As the very first rug store to provide live pre-order due dates, we provide you with real-time information on the expected dates of pre-ordered items. It's worth noting that all UK rug stores receive stock from the same suppliers, so no other retailer will get a pre-ordered rug faster than we do. However, these estimated arrival dates can sometimes change due to factors outside our control.
