The Desire DSR01 Ivory/Silver Rug exudes contemporary sophistication and balanced elegance through its refined geometric composition. A heathered ivory base provides a calm, neutral foundation, framed by a contrasting linear border in tones of charcoal, silver, and copper brown. Subtle carved detailing introduces depth and dimension, while the shimmering polyester fibres reflect and absorb light from different angles, giving the surface a luxurious dual appearance. Perfect for modern living spaces, dining rooms, and open-plan interiors, this rug captures both simplicity and warmth in equal measure.

Crafted in Turkey from 100% polyester, this rug offers a soft-touch surface with an 8 mm low-profile short pile, combining tactile comfort with practicality. The metallic sheen finish produces a soft luminosity that enhances the design’s linear precision, while the machine-woven construction ensures durability and consistency. A latex backing provides grip and structure, and the serged edges lend a clean, refined outline. Ideal for busy homes, this design balances contemporary styling, easy maintenance, and everyday comfort, making it a timeless accent piece for neutral or warm-toned décor schemes.

The colours and shades present in this rug include:

• Ivory – Used as the dominant background tone across the centre of the rug, offering a soft and calming foundation that lightens the overall palette.

• Silver Grey – Subtle and shimmering, this tone is interwoven throughout the design, adding a reflective quality that changes with the light and angle of viewing.

• Charcoal Grey – Appears in the outermost lines of the border and the inner broken-stripe layers, grounding the design and adding a sense of structure and depth.

• Copper Brown – Visible within the linear bands of the border, this warm earthy tone brings an unexpected richness, contrasting beautifully with the cool neutrals.

• Warm Taupe – Lightly blended into the background texture, creating soft visual dimension and contributing to the layered, tonal effect of the piece.

The Desire DSR01 Ivory/Silver Rug blends Ivory, Silver Grey, Charcoal Grey, Copper Brown, and Warm Taupe tones to deliver a design that’s both inviting and refined. Its linear border and subtle carved centre panel provide geometric definition without overpowering the space, while the light-reactive sheen introduces a touch of luxury. Soft underfoot, easy to care for, and low-shedding, this rug adds a polished modern finish that complements minimalist, transitional, and mid-century interiors alike.

🧵 Cut Pile Rug Characteristics
Every rug has a pile direction — the direction in which the fibres run. With a cut pile rug with a shimmer, light reflects off the fibres differently, which can make the rug appear lighter or darker depending on where you are standing. You can see this by looking at the rug from one end of the room, then walking to the other end and looking back — it may appear darker in one direction and lighter in the other. This is not a manufacturing fault but a natural characteristic of cut pile rugs. It’s worth keeping in mind when deciding where to place the rug, especially if the appearance of it being lighter or darker from one side might matter in your space. This effect is in ranges such as Aurora, Craft, and Apollo. Please note: due to the cut-pile shimmer effect, the rug will display light and dark shading depending on how the pile is brushed and the direction of the light.
