This 17th Century-Inspired Rug Sold Out Days After Launching, But Now It’s Back (Hurry!)
Something I get sad about from time to time is the fact that I have zero space in my apartment for more rugs. There are few things I enjoy more than looking at all of the different rug prints and patterns in home stores and envisioning how I would style them. Even when brands launch new rug collections on their websites, I rush to look at all of the motifs — it’s the best kind of online window shopping.
That’s how I felt a couple of months ago, when home furnishings brand Joon Loloi teamed up with design influencer Drew Michael Scott of Lone Fox on a 21-piece rug collection (among other heirloom-quality decor pieces). Even with so many pretty rugs to choose from, one style in particular sold out in just two days: the Hollyhock printed rug. After being out of stock for weeks, it’s back, but I can’t promise it’ll be here for long. Grab it now to add depth and vintage-inspired mystique to any cozy corner.
What Is the Hollyhock Printed Rug?
The design of this rug was inspired by a 17th-century Belgian tapestry in Scott’s living room, according to the product page; the print was actually lifted directly from the hanging and repurposed for this practical floor covering. Made from polyester and featuring a low-pile construction, the rug might look fancy, but it was made to stand up to high-traffic areas. Not only are its polyester pile and cotton backing durable, but the materials are also stain-resistant.
You’ll also be happy to learn that this piece is OEKO-TEX certified, which means it was made without any harmful chemicals or substances, so it truly is safe for all households. You can shop the rug in four different sizes (all of which are eligible for free shipping) and add a light-, medium-, or heavyweight rug pad for extra protection.
Why You’ll Love the Hollyhock Printed Rug
If you search for 17th-century Belgian or Flemish tapestries online, you’ll see that an authentic one can set you back tens of thousands of dollars. So, the fact that you can snag this replica for under $200 is awesome! Its color scheme of browns, beiges, and moody blues will work wonders to make your living space look thoughtfully curated in a dark academia type of way.
Really, this rug can blend in with a variety of traditional-leaning aesthetics despite its distinct print; one of my coworkers even said it reminded her of The White Lotus’ opening credits. You could pair it with light or dark-colored furniture and similarly keep other accessories in the space either neutral or colorful — the styling options are endless and totally up to you.
Oh, and I haven’t even mentioned yet that you can also hang the rug on a wall like an actual tapestry. I know I enjoy changing up the locations of my rugs every now and then, so I can just imagine how fun it would be to try out different spots for this ultra-versatile gem. Grab it before it sells out again and get to redecorating!
