Styling with a Statement Piece
A high pile rug is more than just something underfoot—it’s a statement in its own right. With its lush texture and rich depth of colour, it naturally draws the eye and anchors the room. Style it beneath a sofa setting to create a warm, inviting hub, or let it take centre stage in a bedroom where softness is key. Whether you choose a bold hue or a more subdued tone, the generous pile adds dimension and drama, turning your rug into a focal point that balances comfort with unmistakable style.
Layering with High and Low
High pile rugs bring a beautiful depth to interiors, especially when paired with contrasting textures. Their plush softness plays perfectly against the slim profile of flat weaves or the natural texture of jute rugs, creating a layered look that feels rich and considered. Place a high pile rug alongside sleek furniture to soften the lines, or combine it with lighter, low-pile designs to strike a balance between comfort and structure. The mix of high and low textures adds warmth, character and a sense of lived-in luxury to any space.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are high pile rugs difficult to clean?
Caring for a high pile rug is easier than it looks. Their thick fibres simply need a little extra attention to stay looking lush. Regular vacuuming on a gentle, low-suction setting will help lift dust without flattening the pile, while spills are best blotted straight away with a clean cloth. For a deeper refresh, a professional clean will revive the fibres and keep them feeling soft underfoot. With mindful care, your high pile rug will remain just as cosy and inviting as the day you brought it home.
Do high pile rugs shed a lot?
Like many rugs made from natural fibres, a little shedding is completely normal at first—but it soon settles as the fibres find their place. Regular, gentle vacuuming helps keep loose strands under control and preserves the rug’s plush texture. Over time, the shedding eases, leaving you with a beautifully soft, dense rug that’s built to last. Far from being a flaw, it’s simply part of the natural journey of owning a high pile rug, adding to its character and handmade appeal.
Are these rugs suitable for high-traffic areas?
High pile rugs are best enjoyed in spaces where comfort takes centre stage rather than constant foot traffic. Their plush, cushioned fibres make them perfect for bedrooms, lounge rooms or snug corners where you can really sink in and enjoy their softness. While they can handle everyday use, placing them in busy hallways or dining areas may cause the fibres to flatten more quickly. For high-traffic zones, we suggest more hard-wearing styles and keeping your high pile rug as the cosy highlight of your home.
How can a high pile rug help to reduce noise in a room?
The dense, cushioned fibres of a high pile rug do more than add softness—they naturally absorb sound. By dampening echoes and softening footsteps, they create a quieter, more peaceful atmosphere, especially in larger rooms with hard floors. Whether it’s the gentle hush in a bedroom or a calmer ambience in a lounge, a high pile rug helps transform lively spaces into ones that feel warm, cosy and beautifully serene.
