Babylon rugs 8547 in Sherbet from the Fading World collection by Louis De Poortere has a multi-layered composition of floral, Arabic geometric and distressed elements, set in soft dusky colour tones. The distressed, antique look that is suited to both contemporary and traditional room styles. This stunning range of rugs has been designed by the famous Belgian design Louis De Poortere and are woven on wilton jacquard looms using the finest cotton chenille yarns to create the intricate detailing. These flatweave rugs are approx 8mm in thickness making them the perfect choice for under tables and chairs and very durable and easy to maintain. The edges are hemmed to create a neat finish and the backing of these rugs is treated with an anti-slip coating to prevent movement on your floor.
I love this rug for its versatile and subtle colour palette, which allows it to seamlessly blend into both contemporary and transitional interiors. The faded, slightly worn look of the ‘Fading World’ gives it a relaxed, vintage feel that works well in cosy living rooms or bedrooms. It’s particularly good for layering over neutral or textured flooring, adding warmth and visual interest without overpowering the space. For styling tips, consider pairing it with mismatched or natural-toned furnishings, and keep accessories minimal to highlight the rug’s understated elegance. It’s a practical choice for adding personality and depth to a variety of interiors while maintaining a sense of understated sophistication.
