Price History
Description
Part of Linie Design's premium Selected collection, this light grey Misty Rug exudes elegance thanks to its subtle yet sophisticated geometric pattern. The design itself was inspired by light, with a slight ombré effect journeying from the top to the bottom of the rug. Expert artisans in India hand-knot each rug using New Zealand wool and viscose. The addition of viscose lends the rug a slight sheen that is accentuated when it catches the light. The rug's Nordic maker, Linie Design, is committed to sustainable design and is part of the worldwide Care and Fair scheme to support its weavers.
Our Stylist Says
I love this rug for its versatile, understated design and the light grey tone that complements both modern and minimalist interiors. It works especially well in open-plan living spaces or dining rooms where a neutral foundation is needed, but with enough pattern to add subtle interest. Styling tips include pairing it with natural textures like wood or rattan furniture to create a relaxed, sophisticated vibe. To keep it looking fresh, consider layering it over a slightly darker or contrasting floor surface or accessorising with cushions and throws in complementary colours to add warmth and texture. This rug is practical too, thanks to its easy-to-maintain design, making it ideal for busy families or those who entertain frequently.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
