Aldric Medallion Round Rug

The Aldric Medallion Round Rug from Solae Design centres a single medallion motif within a circular field, a composition borrowed from medieval and early European floor coverings. The round format means it reads as a defined zone within a room rather than a floor covering that runs out to the walls, which makes it useful for marking a seating area or a bedside.

The pile is thickened rather than low-profile, which gives it weight underfoot and lets it sit softly over hard flooring without an underlay beneath. That thickness also holds the medallion pattern in slight relief, so the design stays legible even where the tones sit close together. It is washable, which is unusual at this pile depth and makes it genuinely practical in rooms that see real daily traffic.

Works centred under a round dining table, beside a bed, in front of a wardrobe, or floating within a seating area. Vacuum without a beater bar and rotate it periodically so wear and sun exposure stay even. Follow the care label for washing; air dry flat and never tumble dry, as heat will felt the pile and permanently change its texture. Colour will fade in strong direct sunlight, so draw blinds during peak hours in a south-facing room.
