Introducing the Katherine Carnaby Chrome Lead Grey Rug – a statement of pure sophistication and timeless modern elegance. Hand-woven by skilled artisans in India, this rug is part of the acclaimed Chrome collection, celebrated for its silky-smooth finish and luxurious lustre. The dense viscose pile creates a captivating shimmer that shifts with the light, producing subtle tonal movement and a soft, velvety texture underfoot.

The colours and shades present in this rug include:

• Lead Grey – The dominant background shade, a deep and elegant charcoal-grey tone that exudes sophistication and provides a modern, moody base.

• Slate Grey – Gently blended through the surface, softening the darker base with a muted, cool undertone.

• Silver Grey – Lightly reflected in the sheen, catching the light to create a lustrous, liquid-metal effect that defines the rug’s signature shimmer.

• Smoke Grey – Found in the shaded areas of the pile, lending depth and enhancing the luxurious character of the viscose texture.

• Ash Grey – Subtly visible where the pile direction changes, adding contrast and a soft, silvery lift to the overall composition.

The Katherine Carnaby Chrome Lead Grey Rug embodies understated glamour and tactile luxury. Crafted from 100% viscose, it features a 12 mm high-density hand-woven pile that offers a sumptuous feel and elegant drape. The reflective quality of the viscose gives the rug a high-shine, silky surface that shifts beautifully under changing light, creating a sophisticated, mirror-like sheen. Its plain design and tonal depth make it a perfect complement to both modern and classic interiors, adding a refined sense of warmth to living rooms, bedrooms, and lounge spaces. Each rug is hand-finished, ensuring a premium look and unique surface character. For those seeking a minimalist yet luxurious statement piece, the Chrome Lead Grey is an exceptional choice that pairs beautifully with metallic décor, plush furnishings, and neutral palettes.

Important Note: Viscose Rug Characteristics

As with all viscose rugs, this rug requires special care:

• Please Read Our Blog Before Purchase: Click here so you fully understand the nature of these rugs. The guide covers: the unique characteristics of viscose fibre, cleaning & maintenance challenges, spill management & water sensitivity, and what to expect over time (sheen, shading, texture changes).

• Pile Shading: Blade rugs show shading depending on pile direction and lighting.

• Size Tolerance: Allow up to 4% variation due to the hand-crafted nature, even with two rugs of the same size.

Handmade Viscose Rug Characteristics
Our handmade rugs are individually crafted, so each one is unique with natural variations known as abrash in colour, size, design, pattern, yarn, stitching, and texture. Shedding is normal and expected — sometimes lasting for the rug’s entire life — but it does not affect durability. Loose fibres and stray threads can simply be trimmed with scissors (never pulled) to avoid damage. These natural characteristics, along with mixed yarn colours, slight imperfections, and subtle texture differences, add charm and authenticity rather than being faults. If you prefer a perfectly uniform look, machine-made synthetic rugs may be more suitable, and any exchange will still have its own unique variations.
