Sussex Rush is a hearty brown that pays homage to the Sussex Chair, an iconic 19th century Morris & Co. furniture article that was produced with woven rushes. Highly opaque and low sheen, the eggshell paint finish offers a fresh, enduring quality. Ensure good ventilation during application and drying. All surfaces to be painted should be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material including dirt and grease. Prime base surfaces with an appropriate primer. Rub down previously glossed painted surfaces with fine waterproof abrasive paper and rinse thoroughly. Avoid the inhalation of dust. Wear a suitable face mask if dry sanding. Special precautions should be taken during preparation of pre-1960’s paint surfaces as they may contain harmful lead. Prime base surfaces with an appropriate primer. Stir well before use and apply by brush or roller. Apply 2 coats, recoatable after 2-4 hours. Additional coats may be required on new plaster or where a larger colour change is desired.
I love the Sussex Rush2.5 rug for its warm, earthy tone that effortlessly anchors a room while adding a touch of visual interest. It's quite versatile and works well in both contemporary and more traditional interiors, especially where you want to create a cosy, inviting atmosphere. When styling, consider pairing it with neutral or muted colour palettes to let the rich hue stand out, or pair it with textured fabrics and natural materials for a layered, relaxed feel. Practical tips include placing it in living rooms or bedrooms to define a seating or lounging area, and ensuring it’s large enough to pull the space together, especially under furniture, to give a balanced, cohesive look.
