RUGS FOR YOUR HOME: TRADITIONAL, CONTEMPORARY, MODERN

Located in the Melbourne suburb of Ivanhoe The Rug Room is owned by the Tuke family who have been retailing rugs in Melbourne since 1979. We stock an excellent selection of both traditional and contemporary designs and also offer complementary products such as doormats, non-slip underlays and an overlocking service.

Whilst print and internet catalogues can be an invaluable aid in choosing the style of rug that is right for you, colour and quality can be difficult to appreciate from a picture. We invite you to visit our shop where you will be able to contrast and compare rugs from a number of leading importers. We also encourage our customers to take advantage of our approvals system so that you can be sure that the rug you purchase is the perfect one for your needs.

Nobody says that choosing the right rug for your home is easy but at The Rug Room we aim to make the experience that much pleasanter. At The Rug Room you will find a beautiful range of rugs along with knowledgeable and helpful sales personnel who will be on hand to guide you through the process and assist with colour and design coordination.

The pages of this website will give you only an indication of the variety that is to be found in our shop. We have not attempted to include every rug or range that we stock but rather to provide an overview. Again we would like to remind you that due to differences in computer displays actual colours may differ from what is viewed onscreen. Our customers often remark that the rugs only come alive when seen on the floor.

BROAD SELECTION OF STYLES

Traditional/Machine-made rugs
Our machine-made traditional rugs come from a variety of countries: Belgium, Roumania, Turkey, Iran. We stock both quality wool and heatset rugs. Many of our rugs are available in a variety of sizes which makes it easier when matching rugs are desired.

Traditional/Handmade rugs
Sourced from Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan each rug is a unique handmade treasure to love and to live with.

Contemporary or modern rugs
We select from an ever-increasing range of contemporary rugs to offer you the very best of designs and colours. We like to emphasize natural fibers and most of our rugs are tufted, knotted or woven wool and are supplied by leading importers.

Shagpile or textured rugs
Very much in vogue at the moment is shagpile of which a great variety of colours and textures is available. From the budget "Bella" to the luxurious wool "Caulfield" you can look, feel and enjoy. We still stock an old classic the Flokati (hand-woven woolen rugs from Greece) which may be the only shaggy rug that can be washed in the washing machine!

Kids rugs
For childrens bedrooms and playrooms we feature some appealing brightly coloured and pastel rugs in wool and in acrylic. If your child is a little older or you want a rug that will endure through their adolescence maybe consider a plain, bright-coloured range or shagpile.
