Perfect Sizing: Some Guidelines on Choosing Dining Room Rug
The most important thing about choosing a dining room rug is the size of the rug around the dining table.
- Ideally, your rug should be 24-30 inches from each side of the table.
- To successfully place a dining rug under the table meant for 6 people comfortably, an 8’ x 10’ sized rug should be considered at the very least.
- The sizes that work well for larger dining sets include 9×12 or even larger.
- Remember: All chairs should remain on the rug even when pulled out
Deciding the Right Material:
While dining room rugs are often aesthetically pleasing, they must resist chair motion and possible spills. Our recommendations include:
We recommend Hand Knotted Wool Rugs for dining rooms because:
- These are naturally stain-resistance
- Preferred because of their exceptional durability
- Easily maintained
- They also give a luxurious appearance
Or Silk-wool blends Perfect for formal dining rooms, giving:
- A sophisticated sheen look
- Enhanced visual depth
- Premium feel underfoot
Pattern Selection:
- Larger patterns work well in spacious dining rooms
- Small, intricate patterns help hide occasional crumbs
- Geometric patterns complement modern dining sets
- Traditional medallions pair beautifully with classic furniture
Color Coordination:
- Choose tones that complement your dining room's color scheme
- Darker colors and mixed patterns help disguise stains
- Consider your dining room's natural light
- Factor in your wall color and furniture finishes
Maintenance and Care:
To protect your investment:
- Use a high-quality rug pad
- Rotate your rug every 6-12 months

Common Mistakes to Avoid
