Price History
Description
Reinterpreting 19th-century Japanese designs, the silver Kaito Rug’s stripped-back motif resembles winding flowers and stems. Knotted using a traditional loom, this knotted design is made from lustred viscose fibres to create a fascinating texture that glimmers in the light. Its Nordic maker, Linie Design, is committed to sustainable design and is part of the worldwide Care and Fair scheme to support its weavers. Similarly, every rug is crafted using environmentally friendly fibres.
Our Stylist Says
The Linie's Kaito Rug is a versatile option that brings a subtle, sophisticated texture to a range of interiors. I love its understated pattern and neutral silver tone, which makes it a flexible piece for both contemporary and more traditional settings. It works particularly well in open-plan living spaces or under a dining table, where its muted elegance can ground the room without overwhelming it. For styling, consider pairing it with soft, tactile furnishings and layered textiles to add warmth and depth. Its low-key palette also makes it ideal for modern interiors that favour sleek, minimalist aesthetics, while also complementing darker woods or muted colour schemes for a cohesive look. Practical tips include placing it on a non-slip pad for safety and ensuring it’s large enough to define a seating area without feeling crowded.

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.
