Product details
Looking for a practical, low-maintenance rug that works just as well on a covered patio as it does beside your dining sideboard? The Althea Purple Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug delivers modern pattern and serious durability in one flat-woven package. An outdoor rug is a rug constructed from synthetic fibers--in this case polyester--that resists UV fade, sheds moisture quickly, and handles foot traffic, spills, and sun without breaking down the way natural-fiber rugs do. This purple design is available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping, and it fits seamlessly into any space that demands both color and convenience.

Why choose this washable outdoor rug from Sideboards and Things?
Pair it with your favorite pieces from our outdoor accent chairs collection to anchor a balcony seating area, or layer it beneath a credenza in a sunny entryway where UV stabilization keeps the purple hue rich and unfaded. The ultra-thin profile and non-skid backing mean the rug stays flat against tile, wood, or concrete, and when it's time for a refresh you can toss smaller sizes into your home washing machine or hose down the larger formats outside. Family- and pet-friendly stain resistance makes this rug ideal for high-traffic zones, and the fast-drying flat weave sheds water after a rain shower or a quick rinse.

- No assembly is required; simply unroll and position the rug where you want it. Free curbside delivery is included; white-glove in-room placement and any additional services are available upon request for an extra fee.
