Description
Design. Featuring neutral tones enlivened with subtle pops of blue, the Marreu Rug in Mandalay is the ideal choice for relaxed, cosy interiors. Handwoven from a luxurious wool and cotton blend, the rug has varying pile heights with areas of 3D texture for a unique look. Classic tassel edging details the ends of the rug, adding a final touch of softness and charm. Bringing together a modern geometric design and traditional kilim technique, the Paloma is sure to be admired for years to come.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Marreu Rug in Mandalay for its versatile and contemporary pattern, which adds subtle interest without overwhelming a space. Its neutral tones make it highly adaptable, working well in both modern and bohemian interiors, as well as more classic settings when paired with layered textures. Practical styling tips include placing it under a coffee table to anchor a seating area or in a bedroom to introduce warmth and visual depth. It's also great for layering over larger carpets or hardwood floors to soften the look and add tactile comfort. This rug is especially suitable for active family homes or spaces where a low-maintenance, durable design is a priority.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
