Shaggy Rugs: The UK's Next Favourite Rug?
Just as in any
industry, the tastes and trends within the world or rugs is always in flux.
The popularity
of certain types of rug can wax and wane at almost any time, and we’re always
surprised to learn about which specific rug will be the nation’s new favourite.
Well, from the looks of recent history, shaggy rugs are the newest ‘must-have’
rug for the UK. So is this a shaggy rug renaissance, or just a flash in the
pan? Let’s find out.
The history of shaggy rugs
The long pile
shaggy rug has always been a relatively popular choice in the UK. Way back in
the 1960s when rugs like this were first imported from countries like China and
India, shaggy rugs took off in a big way. You only need to look at some of the
memorabilia or movies from that era to see the specific type of shaggy rug that
seemed to be prevalent on almost every floor. Vivid colours were big time too,
with lots of bright and colourful designs in the midst of that long pile.
Classic shaggy rug designs, like the Cascade
Rugs, have always been popular – but recently
they’re really catching on.
The role of texture and feel
One of the
style choices you’ll see in lots of modern interior design is texture – and
that’s not just in relation to shaggy rugs. From wallpaper to flooring,
cushions to bedding, the way things feel is
becoming more important in the 21st Century. That could explain the
surge in popularity of shaggy rugs such as the Dumroo
Rugs range. Made from textured pile for an
effortlessly soft touch, it’s no wonder shaggy rugs like this are so
sought-after.
