What is a round rug?<\/h2>\n

A round rug is circular in shape rather than the usual rectangle. The Houseify collection features round rugs from India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and China; there are no round Moroccan Berber rugs. There is a technical reason for this: a Berber rug is knotted on a fixed, rectangular loom, which naturally produces rectangular pieces. A round shape is usually created using tufting, a different technique whereby yarn is shot through a stretched fabric using a gun; this is a common production method in India and Pakistan.<\/p>\n

A round tablecloth softens the sharp corners of a rectangular room and is a natural fit for a round dining table, whereas a rectangular tablecloth would look less natural.<\/p>\n\n

How do you choose the right round rug?<\/h2>\n

For a round dining table, choose a tablecloth with a diameter that is 60 to 90 cm larger than the table itself, so that the chairs remain on the tablecloth even when pulled out.<\/p>\n\n
