Renaissance Palmette Rug

Echoing a 15th-century Italian silk, now housed in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The design features stylised palmettes and scrolling foliage motifs, which were adopted by Italian weavers during the Renaissance as part of a broader exchange of artistic influences. These patterns, reminiscent of the luxurious damasks brought to Europe along the Silk Road, demonstrate the fusion of Eastern and Western design traditions. This rug, with its rich burgundy, sage and gold tones on a dark cream ground, evokes the opulence and elegance of the Renaissance period. The intricate carved design is made from a blend of viscose and acrylic chenille. It makes a pretty addition to any space.

Do not use water to clean. Use an acetic or citric solution which will not cause yellowing of the fibres. Do not use too much solution as the fibres are very absorbent. Never scrub it too hard or use an electric rug cleaner on it. If there is a spillage, use paper towels or a clean white cloth to gently blot away the spilled stuff, and after that, a cloth dipped in the acetic or citric solution to carefully dab the spot until the stain is removed. Always move the cloth in the direction of the rug’s pile, rather than rubbing it backward and forward. After you are done, you can soften the viscose fibres with some fabric softener sprayed on the treated area.
