Runner Rugs

If you need long, narrow rugs to warm your hallways and embrace your kitchen islands, we source a wide range of runner rugs of different widths and lengths, focusing on rugs suitable for high traffic and everyday use. Long runners or twin sets can be installed on staircases to create a unique vintage staircase runner. Bathrooms may also benefit from smaller runners.

Many runner rugs are mostly made of wool pile that has been cut to low pile lengths. These designs are simple to clean and maintain. The wool fibers in our runner rugs are naturally stain-resistant. If you vacuum your rug weekly, you can extend its life and ensure it always looks its best.

Area Rugs

Are you looking for a rug for a large room? Consider this broad category of area rugs as a good starting point. Our collection includes a wide range of palettes and styles that are ready to serve as the foundation of any room in your home and are easily organized into two broad size categories: medium and large. You can add a touch of bohemian quaintness, neutral texture, or ornate elegance! Our rugs have a mix of eye-catching accents, lavish oriental patterns, and dyed simple color palettes that will enhance the texture and character of your interior décor and bring it to life in a distinctively unique way.

Distressed Rugs

Many esteemed designers understand how “old things” can enhance a new space. They can add character to your room and help it to feel comfortable and livable. Our distressed rugs are hand-picked for their unique combination of age, beauty, and tenacity. Distressed rugs are those that show visible signs of wear. Uneven rug pile heights, exposed cotton foundations, and repaired patches are examples of this. Typically, these signs of wear and repair are purely cosmetic, and the rugs themselves remain highly resilient and suitable for daily wear and tear in high-traffic areas of the home, like the dining room, living room, kitchen, and hallways. Occasionally, we source distressed rugs with more delicate foundations that are best suited for low-traffic areas away from children and pets.

The Rug Rack & Murphy’s Rug Cleaners has worn, weathered vintage rugs popular among designers and homeowners across the country. These distressed rugs complement any decor and can be styled in traditional bohemian, contemporary, or transitional styles. Vintage rugs, whether heavily distressed or in pristine condition, are a great way to incorporate the look of heirloom pieces into any modern space, thanks to the modern elements and centuries-old motifs that they blend so seamlessly.

Muted Rugs

Sometimes the design of a room requires a rug that can take a back seat to other eye-catching centerpieces. If you want a rug that complements the colors in your home rather than asserting a dominant color palette, then our beautiful, muted rugs from The Rug Rack & Murphy’s Rug Cleaners will make your home cozier and enhance its overall style. We have a large selection of vintage and antique muted rugs appropriate for traditional, modern, and transitional decor. The rugs have been chosen to add comfort and style to your living spaces without overpowering the color palette. These rugs still make a statement and will improve the look of your space, just in a more reserved way. Some muted rugs have been acid-washed, a process that lifts the majority of the original colors of the rug, leaving a softer, neutral backdrop to any room. Other rugs may still have their original dyes, but the colors may have been muted by time or a soft antique washing application.

Our handmade muted rugs can change the mood of your room while also protecting your hardwood floors. Our muted rugs, which come in various sizes and patterns, have been carefully chosen to complement a wide range of decor styles and spaces.

Any rug smaller than a 5x7 is one we classify as a 'small rug.’ Our small vintage rugs collection includes hand-woven rugs that have been hand-picked for their beauty and appeal for the modern home. Small vintage rugs are commonly used in entryways, mud rooms, laundry rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens. We recommend leaving at least 2" of clearance on all sides of a rug in a given space when measuring to determine which small vintage rug may be best for the space you’re working with and ensuring the room doesn’t feel too crowded.

A 'medium rug' is considered to be larger than a 4x6 but smaller than a 7x10. Our medium vintage rugs are priced differently depending on size, style, and origin, but they are an excellent value for any budget. Vintage and semi-antique rugs of this size are frequently narrower than newer rugs of this length, and it is simple to find nonstandard, unusual sizes for your home's unique spaces. Simply consult with our experts and come to us with the measurements you need and we will customize a rug to fit your space like a glove!

Medium rugs are ideal for smaller living rooms, bedrooms, mudrooms, and studies. Have you found a lovely medium rug that you adore, but it is too small for the space you have in mind?
